The Systematized Nomenclature of Dentistry (SNODENT) is an effort of the American Dental Association (ADA) to develop a controlled terminology that addresses the needs of clinical dentistry. The ADA, collaborating with the College of American Pathologists, developed and incorporated SNODENT as a microglossary of SNOMED. However, little evidence exists of the effectiveness of its clinical coverage. We extracted diagnostic terms from clinical case reports and evaluated SNODENT's and other medical terminologies' coverage of those terms.
牙科系统命名法(SNODENT)是美国牙科协会(ADA)为开发一种满足临床牙科需求的受控术语而做出的努力。ADA与美国病理学家学会合作,开发并将SNODENT纳入SNOMED的微型词汇表。然而,几乎没有证据表明其临床覆盖范围的有效性。我们从临床病例报告中提取诊断术语,并评估了SNODENT和其他医学术语对这些术语的覆盖范围。
