Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Health Information Management
  • Natural Language Processing

Background:

  • The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is a standard diagnostic tool for epidemiology, health management, and clinical purposes.
  • The Romanian version of the ICD was initially a printed document, posing challenges for efficient data retrieval.
  • Digitalization of the ICD is crucial for modern healthcare information systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce CIM Explorer, an intelligent software interface for the Romanian ICD.
  • To enhance the exploration and querying of the Romanian ICD database.
  • To facilitate natural language searching of ICD records, accommodating Romanian language specificities.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the CIM Explorer software with an intelligent interface.
