“…a perfect inter-operability is required. In that respect, our work could be compared to approaches dedicated to the design of medical terminologies, notably in order to facilitate codification of surgical procedures 5,7,22,26 . The main applications of these terminologies concern classifications and coding for computerized medical records, reimbursement, quality insurance, public health management, epidemiological surveys, for example.…”

“…They demonstrated that the GALEN model was capable of technically representing the concepts well; however, the language generation was often not presented in a form which native speakers of the target language would fi nd natural. Trombert-Paviot et al reported the results of the use of GALEN in mapping French procedures to an underlying concept representation [ 9 ] . Wroe et al in 2001 reported the ability to integrate a separate ontology for drugs into the GALEN model [ 10 ] .…”

“…GALEN (Generalised Architecture for Languages Encyclopaedias and Nomenclatures) provides reusable terminology resources for clinical systems. It contains 25,000 concepts used to represent a complex structure of descriptions of medical procedures [19]. Furthermore, GENE ontology (GO) was developed by the National Human Genome Research Institute in 1998.…”
