Developing a diagnosis aiding ontology based on hysteroscopy image processing

Abstract

In this paper we describe an ontology design process which will introduce the steps and mechanisms required in order to create and develop an ontology which will be able to represent and describe the contents and attributes of hysteroscopy images, as well as their relationships, thus providing a useful ground for the development of tools related with medical diagnosis from physicians. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
