Four ontological models for radiological diagnostics.
In this paper we isolate four diagnostic models in radiology and define a set of diagnostic relations corresponding to each clinical situation. To achieve this, we describe a set of general formal ontological notions, as well as the ontological model of the imaging domain we employed in our analysis. On the basis of our results, we conclude that these diagnostic models and the relations contained therein could be applied to diagnostic situations outside of radiology as well.
