Abstract

In this paper, we discuss a method of facilitating doctor-patient conversation through an interactive information visualization interface. Using risk prediction index and its discussion as the focus of the conversation, we present ways of using information visualization principles and interaction design to support and encourage this activity, and enhance the experience of the discussion.
