Re: Yosemite Manifesto on RDF as a Universal Healthcare Exchange Language

Hello David,

here is my contribution to the field:

An Ontology for DICOM metadata (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine):
http://purl.org/healthcarevocab/v1

A tool to extract metadata from DICOM files as RDF:
https://github.com/Bonubase/dicom2rdf

Those will be presented in more detail at ODLS 2013:
https://wiki.imise.uni-leipzig.de/Gruppen/OBML/Workshops/2013-ODLS-en

Regards,

Michael Brunnbauer
