Abstract:
In order to realize sophisticated medical information systems, many medical ontologies have been developed. We proposed a definition of disease based on River Flow Model which captures a disease as a causal chain of clinical disorders. We also developed a disease ontology based on the model. It includes definitions of more than 6,000 diseases with 17,000 causal relationships. This demonstration summarizes the disease ontology and a browsing system for causal chains defined in it.
