While HL7 FHIR and its terminology package have seen a rapid uptake by the research community, in no small part due to the wide availability of tooling and resources, there are some areas where tool availability is still lacking. In particular, the comparison of terminological resources, which supports the work of terminologists and implementers alike, has not yet been sufficiently addressed. Hence, we present TerminoDiff, an application to semantically compare FHIR R4 CodeSystem resources. Our tool considers differences across all levels required, i.e. metadata and concept differences, as well as differences in the edge graph, and surfaces them in a visually digestible fashion.
虽然 HL7 FHIR 及其术语包在研究界得到了快速采用，这在很大程度上要归功于广泛可用的工具和资源，但在某些领域仍然缺乏工具。特别是术语资源的比较，这支持了术语学家和实施者的工作，但尚未得到充分解决。因此，我们提出了 TerminoDiff，这是一个用于语义比较 FHIR R4 CodeSystem 资源的应用程序。我们的工具考虑了所有需要的层次的差异，即元数据和概念差异，以及边缘图的差异，并以可视化的方式呈现出来。
