A RadLex "How-To" Tutorial and Practical Example for Integrating RadLex to Individual Needs
 
Author:
Roland Talanow, MD, PhD, The Cleveland Clinic
 
Background:

RadLex is a lexicon for uniform indexing and retrieval of radiology information resources. It offers users and developers the ability to share information via several ways. One way is the possibility of retrieving the information directly from the user's website. However, for users with less computer experienced, this may be a difficult task to perform.

 
Evaluation:

We provide a tutorial on how to create an interface using the RadLex information from the user's own website. The tutorial explains step by step, the requirements needed to perform this task and explains the individual steps with use of explanatory text and images. This tutorial also demonstrates a working and useful example. After completion of the tutorial, even an inexperienced computer user should be able to integrate a RadLex interface into their own website.

 
Discussion:

This tutorial explains, even for a less experienced computer user, how to create a working RadLex interface for individual purposes, such as integrating into their own website.

 
Conclusion:

After reading this tutorial, the user should be able to understand the basic concepts of RadLex and should be able to integrate RadLex into a website for their individual purposes.
