We describe UVAL-MED, a Universal visual associative language for medicine, and propose its use in combination with diagnostic reasoning and decision support systems. When fully developed, our system will automatically translate SNOMED terms to UVAL-MED terms. Grammar and syntax for UVAL-MED are defined and its features as a language-independent tool are discussed. The perceived advantages of our graphical language for rapid integration of knowledge and the assessment of developing situations could thus facilitate decision making.
我们描述了UVAL-MED,一种医学通用视觉关联语言,并建议将其与诊断推理和决策支持系统结合使用。当我们的系统完全开发完成后,它将自动把SNOMED术语翻译成UVAL-MED术语。我们定义了UVAL-MED的语法和句法,并讨论了其作为一种独立于语言的工具的特点。我们的图形语言在快速整合知识和评估发展态势方面的明显优势,因此有助于决策。
