Ontology: A conceptual representation that computers can understand and process.

The fact that people use different terminology to mean the same thing presents a challenge – especially in the healthcare industry, where access to and understanding of data is critical to patient care. The fact that computers can’t understand these differences further complicates the problem.

The solution: LinKBase® ,  the world's largest and most comprehensive ontology knowledgebase which provides conceptual representation of human language for the healthcare industry.
