Paper-based terminology systems cannot satisfy anymore the new desiderata of healthcare information systems: the demand for re-use and sharing of patient data, their transmission and the need of semantic-based criteria for purposive statistical aggregation. The unambiguous communication of complex and detailed medical concepts is now a crucial feature of medical information systems. Ontologies can support a more effective data and knowledge sharing in medicine. In this paper we briefly survey our ontological analysis and integration of various top-levels of terminologies and we report the main results of the ontological analysis of the UMLS Metathesaurus.
对患者数据的重复使用和共享需求、数据传输需求以及基于语义的目的性统计汇总标准的需求。复杂而详细的医学概念的明确交流如今是医学信息系统的一项关键特性。本体能够支持医学领域更有效的数据和知识共享。在本文中,我们简要概述了我们对各种顶级术语的本体分析与整合,并报告了对统一医学语言系统元词表进行本体分析的主要结果。
