  • Title: Translation of SNOMED CT - strategies and description of a pilot project.
    Author: Klein GO, Chen R.
    Journal: Stud Health Technol Inform; 2009; 146():673-7. PubMed ID: 19592926.
    Abstract:
    The translation and localization of SNOMED CT (Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine - Clinical Terms) have been initiated in a few countries. In Sweden, we conducted the first evaluation of this terminology in a project called REFTERM in which we also developed a software tool which could handle a large scale translation with a number of translators and reviewers in a web-based environment. The system makes use of existing authorized English-Swedish translations of medical terminologies such as ICD-10. The paper discusses possible strategies for a national project to translate and adapt this terminology.
