Abstract
The current resurgence in the use of nomograms as diagnostic and prognostic tools has legitimate roots in their effectiveness in facilitating communication between the doctor and patient. By returning to a more classical approach to nomography, graphical insights can further enlighten the patient beyond what can be achieved with current methods, while at the same time simplifying the process. We propose a going-forward extension that addresses the issue of further use of computing technology to continue to enhance understanding.
