This is a list of medical wikis, collaboratively-editable websites that focus on medical information. Many of the most popular medical wikis take the form of encyclopedias, with a separate article for each medical term. Some of these websites, such as WikiDoc and Radiopaedia, are editable by anyone, while others, such as Ganfyd, restrict editing access to professionals. The majority of have content available only in English. The largest and most popular general encyclopedia, Wikipedia, also hosts a significant amount of health and medical information. ==AskDrWiki== AskDrWiki is a medical wiki encyclopedia created by Cleveland Clinic Cardiology Fellows Kenny Civello and Brian Jefferson. The project was started as a response to the lack of free online medical information found in several community hospitals and was created to form a repository of cardiovascular information that could be readily accessed for reference. It was launched in August 2006. The site now holds medical review articles, clinical notes, pearls, and medical images. The wiki allows anyone with a medical background to contribute or edit medical articles, of which there are over 2,000 as of 2013. The purpose of the site is to provide reliable and easily accessed health information for the medical community including physicians, nurses, and medical students. The information published on the site is not meant to supersede medical training but to serve as a repository of medical review articles to give medical professionals an online source where they can review medical topics. The website is similar to Wikipedia because it runs on MediaWiki software allowing users to add and edit articles, but differs in that all users must be credentialed based on their medical training before they are allowed to publish. Its goal is not to compete with Wikipedia regarding consumer health-related topics, but to serve as an expert medical wiki and provide a source of up-to-date medical information for healthcare providers. In December 2006, AskDrWiki was referenced in a ''British Medical Journal'' article, "How Web 2.0 is Changing Medicine",〔("How Web 2.0 is Changing Medicine" )〕 as one of the early adopters of using video hosting sites such as YouTube and Google Video to host medical videos. It was also discussed in a 2007 ''Nature Medicine'' article on medical wikis. AskDrWiki has been featured in other media including ''The Plain Dealer'',〔( A Wikipedia-style site for Medical Information )〕 ''Medical Economics''〔(Wiki for Physicians Gains Foothold )〕 and ''The American Medical Association News''.〔(Physician Wikis:Do-it-Yourself Textbooks )〕 As of February 2015, although still online, the wiki had minimal ongoing contributions, with only 3 edits in 2014.〔(Ask Dr Wiki's recent changes page ), accessed 2/8/2015, showing only 3 edits in 2014 and none since July 2014.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of medical wikis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
