Searching Medical Journals
If you've exhausted patient and family information and wish more details on a particular medical subject, consider a "MedLine" search. Medline/PubMed is a computer program used to search the medical journals indexed by the National Library of Medicine. Once reserved only for medical staff, you can now perform a Medline search from your own computer without downloading any new software.
