Abstract

A multi-lingual data base for bone scintigraphy with instructive patient cases which is accessible under the WWW will be presented. It includes structured case records based on images and clinical information provided in different European languages. In order to support the retrieval of cases clinical information is represented in a language independent way by means of a formalized compositional concept system. This design allows for accessing cases under various clinical aspects and detail using different languages. Patient cases are being collected from several European centers in Germany, England, Hungary, Slavonia and Spain. The concept system for indexing cases and the multi-lingual vocabulary have been developed under the European COST B2 project - Quality Assurance in Nuclear Medicine Software.
