Thanks,

Hello David,

here is my contribution to the field:

An Ontology for DICOM metadata (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine):
http://purl.org/healthcarevocab/v1

A tool to extract metadata from DICOM files as RDF:
https://github.com/Bonubase/dicom2rdf

Those will be presented in more detail at ODLS 2013:

Regards,

Michael Brunnbauer

I sure hope so!  :)

We'll still argue about whether we use SNOMED roles, make HL7 rim classes

Asking for a single extensive ontology about the world - or even about a
limited subject - that suits all needs is a bit naive.

Agreed.  That's why RDF approach that is advocated does not make that
assumption.


The nice thing about RDF is that you can have all of them in a single
triple
store, map them onto each other and make up your own roles if none of them
suit you.

Exactly.  The Yosemite Manifesto at http://goo.gl/mBUrZ was
intentionally kept simple, but the issue of how semantic alignment can
be achieved was also addressed in the workshop.  See slides at:
http://dbooth.org/2013/semtech/slides/03-DavidBooth-rdf-as-universal.pdf

All slides from the workshop, and some videos of the workshop that were
kindly made by Tom Munnecke -- Thank you Tom! -- are available at:
