Resumo
Oncoterm is an interdisciplinary research project on medical terminology whose main objective is the elaboration of an information system on the biomedical subdomain of oncology in which the concepts are linked to an ontology or a hierarchy of concepts. This conceptual structure underlies the other components of the system and is the link between terms in different languages (English, Spanish, and German). Accordingly, the identification of a conceptual framework facilitates the comprehension of oncology texts in different languages not only for health professionals, but also for translators, journalists, and patients.
