A reference ontology for biomedical informatics: the Foundational Model of Anatomy
The Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA), initially developed as an enhancement of the anatomical content of UMLS, is a domain ontology of the concepts and relationships that pertain to the structural organization of the human body. It encompasses the material objects from the molecular to the macroscopic levels that constitute the body and associates with them non-material entities (spaces, sur...
متن کاملThe Foundational Model of Anatomy Ontology
Status: • proof reading in progress; • CPR form received; Summary. Anatomy is the structure of biological organisms. The term also denotes the scientific discipline devoted to the study of anatomical entities and the structural and developmental relations that obtain among these entities during the lifespan of an organism. Anatomical entities are the independent continuants of biomedical realit...
متن کاملFMA-RadLex: An Application Ontology of Radiological Anatomy derived from the Foundational Model of Anatomy Reference Ontology
Domain reference ontologies are being developed to serve as generalizable and reusable sources designed to support any application specific to the domain. The challenge is how to develop ways to derive or adapt pertinent portions of reference ontologies into application ontologies. In this paper we demonstrate how a subset of anatomy relevant to the domain of radiology can be derived from an an...
متن کاملThe Comparative Anatomy Information System for the Foundational Model of Anatomy and Mouse Anatomy Ontology
The Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA) [5] is a hierarchical description of the human anatomy implemented in the Protégé 2000 knowledge representation. It can be navigated using Protégé or the Foundational Model Explorer (FME) or queried using the query engine Emily [2], [3]. An approach called The Structural Difference Method [4] has been proposed to correlate the anatomy of two species. In t...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
