  ABSTRACT: The XML medical knowledge representation (XMKR) is not a coding system, rather it is a medical knowledge system that tags the different manifestations of codified medical knowledge as they appear in text documents and models different medical systems appearing in text documents. The XMKR tagged documents can be viewed in different styles according to the needs of users.

  ABSTRACT: The Linguistic String Project-Medical Language Processor, a system for computer analysis of narrative patient documents in English, is being adapted for French Lettres de Sortie. The system converts the free-text input to a semantic representation which is then mapped into a relational database. Retrievals of clinical data from the database are described.

  ABSTRACT: The syntax and semantics of clinical narrative across Indo-European languages are quite similar, making it possible to envison a single medical language processor that can be adapted for different European languages. The Linguistic String Project of New York University is continuing the development of its Medical Language Processor in this direction. The paper describes how the processor operates on English and French.
