Body diagrams provide a front and back view where the user can select different body areas. For example, they could be used to highlight areas of injury, pain or massage.
Types of body diagram fields
There are four different body diagram fields which you are able to choose from:
All diagrams default to a maximum selection of one area, so if you wish to record more you will need to set this in the field Advanced properties.
Simple body area
The Simple body area field allows people to select generalized areas from a body diagram. This is useful when recording injuries that are difficult to pinpoint to a location on the body. When someone selects an area on the body, the area is highlighted in red.
