SNOMED Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) was created from a merger of SNOMED Reference Terminology (SNOMED RT)and CTV3 the Read Codes. The animal hierarchy in SNOMED RT was organized by common names, such as "Dog" and "Cat". It was later decided to convert common names to Linnean Taxonomy in SNOMED CT, such as Canis familiaris and Felis Sylvestris,in accordance with the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS) and the Smithsonian mammalian taxonomy.
SNOMED临床术语(SNOMED CT)由SNOMED参考术语(SNOMED RT)和CTV3(即Read编码)合并而成。SNOMED RT中的动物层级是按照通用名称来组织的,比如“狗”和“猫”。后来决定在SNOMED CT中,根据综合分类信息系统(ITIS)和史密森尼哺乳动物分类法,将通用名称转换为林奈分类法,如犬属家犬和家猫。
