Stud Health Technol Inform. 2020 Jun 23:271:108-109. doi: 10.3233/SHTI200082.

Abstract

Background: Audit trails of health information systems are not useful for business analytics.

Objectives: To show how recent developments can be utilized to enable process mining in radiology.

Methods: The SWIM lexicon is used to code the workflow steps.

Results: Seven activities with their corresponding RadLex codes.

Conclusion: The semantic enrichment of audit trails is an important step in operationalizing and improving the workflows in radiology.

Keywords: biomedical ontologies; health care; process assessment.
