Introduction
The Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) is
a many controlled vocabularies in the biomedical sciences
created 1986. It provides a mapping structure among these
vocabularies and allows one to translate among the
various terminology systems; it may also be viewed as a
comprehensive thesaurus and ontology of biomedical
concepts. UMLS further provides facilities for natural
language processing. It is intended to be used mainly by
developers of systems in medical informatics.
Definition
The Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) is a
compendium of many controlled vocabularies in the
biomedical sciences.
History
Started at National Library of Medicine, 1986
“Long-term R&D project”
Complementary to IAIMS
UMLS Uses
 Information retrieval
 Thesaurus construction
 Natural language processing
 Automated indexing
 Electronic patient records
UMLS Objectives
 Designed for systems developers
 Develop multi-purpose tools to understanding of
medical meaning across systems
 Overcome barriers to effective retrieval of machine-
readable information
 Overcome variety of ways the same concepts are
expressed in machine readable and human language
To design information retrieval or patient record systems
To facilitate the communication between different systems
 To develop systems that parse the biomedical literature
UMLS Access
 Remote access
UMLS Terminology Services
✔ Browsers, Navigators
✔ Download files and programs
✔ Documentation
 Local access
Subset Browser: search, browse, view customized
subsets
UMLS Knowledge sources
 Metathesaurus
 Semantic Network
 SPECIALIST Lexicon
UMLS Terminology Services
The purpose of the UTS is to make the UMLS data more
accessible to users and, in particular, to systems
developers.
Metathesaurus browser
Semantic Network browser
The UMLS Terminology Services is a computer
application that provides Internet access to the UMLS
Knowledge Sources.
