Abstract

The market for health care systems supporting physicians and improving their dailyroutine is dynamically growing.The development of these systems makes great demandson the handling of medical knowledge like anatomical and process knowledge.In thispaper a special approach for the radiological domain will be presented.Our frameworkincludes mechanisms to store medical knowledge in different knowledge containers,whose importance is varying from application to application,and to support theexecution of the processes.Three applications are introduced exemplary.We analyzedthe application scenarios to find the knowledge intensive tasks,that can be supportedby an assistant system.The implemented solutions are integrated in daily work of ourradiological partner hospitals.
