This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May 2008. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulat

19、 terminologies of human anatomy. Computer-based processing and the interchange of medical or clinical information requires various kinds of terminological systems to represent that information, such as controlled vocabularies, classifications, nomenclatures, terminologies and thesauri, with or witho

20、ut coding schemes. The specific terminological issues in the field of health informatics are: large number of different terminological systems are available in different clinical specialties; large overlap among the subject fields involved; large number of codes and rubrics, typically in the order o

21、f magnitude of 10 000 to 100 000 entries, in commonly used terminological systems; increasing need for re-use of coded data in different health-care contexts; poly-semia across different clinical specialties and sometimes within them. The integration of computer-based medical records and administrat

22、ive information systems in Electronic Health Records (EHR) require rationalization in the field, and a uniform way to represent the meaning of medical concepts to ensure that the receiver EHR of a message will catch the meaning introduced by the sender EHR and not only the string of characters embed

23、ded in it. It is not possible to impose a rigid uniform standardized natural language clinical terminology on healthcare professional providers. Nevertheless standards need to be provided for guiding the development of terminologies in the different sub domains of healthcare to allow semantic intero

24、perability between them. To this end a domain specific semantic representation has been developed (EN 12264) and applied in a series of specific initiatives including European Pre standards (ENV), European Standards (EN) and international ISO standards on various subject fields to describe a set of

25、categorial structures in partially overlapping subject fields: Human anatomy is central to medical terminology ( surgical procedures, carcinoma staging, annotation of radiological findings, disease, clinical laboratory and so forth ) and also to many scientific and bio-informatics study beyond the s

26、cope of clinical medicine . In the US the University of Washington has developed in the public domain an anatomical terminology for EHR named the Digital Anatomist Foundational Model of Anatomy (FMA for short), a reference ontology for biomedical informatics. Adequate field testing in several countr

27、ies, revision and integration have provided the comprehensive basis for this European standard.

28、to synthetically describe the organisation and content of human anatomy within a terminological system. It is intended primarily for use with computer-based applications such as clinical electronic health records, decision support and for various bio-medical research purposes. This European standard

29、 will serve to facilitate the construction of new terminological systems in a regular form which will increase their coherence and expressiveness; facilitate maintenance of human anatomy within terminological systems; increase consistency and coherence of existing terminological system; allow system

30、atic cross-references between items of human anatomy in different types of terminological systems; facilitate convergence among human anatomy within terminological systems; make explicit the overlap for human anatomy between different health care domains terminological systems; provide elements for

31、negotiation about integration of different terminological systems into information systems between the respective developers; enable the systematic evaluation of human anatomy within terminological systems. 1.2 Target groups The European standard itself is not suitable or intended for use by, indivi

32、dual clinicians or hospital administrators. The target groups for this European standard are: designers of specialised standard healthcare terminological categorial structures; developers of healthcare terminological systems including classifications and coding systems; producers of services for ter

33、minological systems and designers of software including natural language processing; information modellers, knowledge engineers, and standards developers building models for health information management systems; developers of information systems that require an explicit representation of healthcare

34、 terminological systems; developers of marked-up standards for representation of healthcare documents.

35、l structure that may be necessary for the description of developmental anatomy during the human life cycle, which includes prenatal development, post-natal growth and aging. This European Standard has been developed for use as an integrated part of computer-based applications and for the electronic

36、healthcare record. It would be of limited value for manual use. It is not the purpose of this European Standard to standardise the end user classification of human anatomy terminology or to conflict with the concept systems embedded in national practice and languages. 2 Normative references The foll

37、owing referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. Not applicable. 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes

38、of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 Human anatomy biological science that concerns the discovery, analysis and representation of the structural organisation of the human body NOTE Human anatomy thus defined encompasses the material objects from the granularity level of t

39、he whole human body to that of cell parts, portions of body substances, and non-material entities such as surfaces, spaces, lines and points, that form the phenotypic organisation of the human body. Although encompassed by the definition of anatomical structure (4.2.9), biological macromolecules do

40、not come under the purview of the science human anatomy. 3.2 anatomical entity entity that constitutes the structural organisation of a human body 3.3 spatial dimension number of dimensions of the entity in space EXAMPLE 1 Entities with spatial dimension of value 3 are organs, cells and body cavity.

41、 EXAMPLE 2 Entities with spatial dimension of value 2: the plane of the esophagogastric junction and the surface of the parietal part of the head. EXAMPLE 3 Entities with spatial dimension of value 1: pectinate line, linea aspera and superior nuchal line. EXAMPLE 4 Entities with spatial dimension of

42、 value 0: the apex of petrous part of temporal bone, apex of the orbit and the apex of the sacrum. 3.4 three-dimensional shape shape of an anatomical entity of spatial dimension with value 3 EXAMPLE Hollow cylinder.

44、resent, past and future EXAMPLE The anatomical category liver is instantiated by this liver and all individual livers in existence in the present, past and future. NOTE 1 Anatomical categories may be more or less general. Where one anatomical category is subsumed by another, the is_a relation is ass

45、erted to obtain a hierarchy between the more specific or subsumed category and the more general or subsuming anatomical category. NOTE 2 Each anatomical entity instantiates some anatomical category. 3.8 anatomical relation relation between two or more anatomical categories derived from corresponding

46、 relations between instances of the respective categories EXAMPLE A is;a B defined to obtain when every entity in category A is at the same time an entity in category B. B has;part_ A defined to obtain when every entity in category B has some entity in category A as part. Other examples of anatomica
