....are studied. Material The UMLS Metathesaurus contains over 1.5 million terms drawn from more than fifty medical vocabularies, and organized in some 800,000 concepts. A concept is defined as the set of synonymous terms corresponding to a single meaning. Conversely, terms are names for concepts [4]. In order to address the large size of the Metathesaurus, we limited our study to terms from umlsks.nlm.nih.gov SNOMED International , one of the source vocabularies in the UMLS. We further selected from SNOMED terms from two major components of clinical medicine: diseases and procedures. We ....

....case, coding is carried out with the help of a thesaurus, which allows defining lexical variants and linking alternative views of the same concept together. It also identifies relations between different concepts as in the semantic network included in the UMLS (Unified Medical Language System) [3,4] or in the MED (Medical Entities Dictionary) 5] With such systems a research on the string heart would allow the coding of mitral valve prolapse , since the mitral valve is a part of the heart. Such systems have to be rapid and easy to use. They also have to offer a program and table ....

....more than 50 biomedical vocabularies, and the Semantic Network, a high level structure that defines and organizes the semantic types assigned to each Metathesaurus concept. The representation of meaning in the UMLS allows users to define and explore the semantic space surrounding a given concept [2]. The various semantic links among concepts represent one of the organizing principles of the UMLS: semantic locality [3] The dimensions of semantic locality include term information (synonymy, hypernymy, hyponymy) contextual information in a particular source, co occurrence of terms in the ....

....building the UMLS is economy, i.e. to prevent unneeded categories from being represented. Applied to the construction of the Semantic Network, the Economy Principle resulted in three rules affecting not only the design of the Semantic Network but also the way Metathesaurus concepts are categorized [14]: R1. Assign the most specific semantic type available. The level of granularity varies across the UMLS Semantic Network. The intent is to establish a set of semantic types, which are useful for a variety of tasks without introducing undue complexity. The most specific semantic type in the ....

.... INTRODUCTION The Semantic Network in the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS ) is a high level representation of the biomedical domain based on Semantic Types under which all the Metathesaurus concepts are categorized, and which may be considered a basic ontology for that domain [1]. Ontologies range in abstraction from very general concepts that form the foundation for knowledge representation for all domains to concepts that are restricted to specific domains [2] Four main categories of ontologies may be described according to their coverage, and the task(s) they are ....
