Abstract


Due to the variety of anomalies present in human pathology, it is necessary to use techniques to organize the amount of information available in this domain. To address this problem, the ontology AnatoRadio was developed and used, which covers the anatomy and radiology to facilitate the dissemination of information, and help inexperienced people to search for data they deem relevant about an anomaly. The ease of understanding and the use of standards to characterize, stipulate time and treatment methods, among others, are objectives of the present study, justified by the massive amount of information in the field of the scientific area in question.
Keywords: Ontology, Use of standards, Treatment Methods
