Abstract:
The Minimal Standard Terminology (MST) for gastrointestinal endoscopy, the product of an international effort, is to be been used in a study comparing free text to structured reports of esophagogastroduodenoscopies (EGDs). This requires some assumptions and adaptations in order to map to the MST in a uniform and quantifiable manner. Initial mapping has suggested a number of problem areas which require further investigation.
