Abstract
We constructed a Kampo medical information database (DB) which contains image information. The DB is laid out by using the MEGABOX-VP database software currently available on the market. The DB has 13 character files, (such as the Kampo medical file, disease file, and side effect file), and the image file (abdominal “Sho” diagnosis file). These 14 files can be combined in the same field using the on-screen relational database and display. This database offers the advantage of easy accessibility to medical staffs engaged in administering Kampo medicine.
