title: The design and implementation of a picklist authoring tool.
abstract: It is well recognized that controlled medical terminologies play a critical role in Health Information Systems and Clinical Patient Record systems, but the creation and management of customized lists of terms ("picklists") remains a potential obstacle. We have been developing a sophisticated authoring tool that is fully integrated with our terminology server and that will be made available to our system analysts and clinicians.
