Generating Links to Background Knowledge for Medical Content

چکیده
Automatically annotating texts with background information has recently received much attention. In this note, we outline a case study in automatically generating links from narrative radiology reports to Wikipedia. Such links are meant to help users understand the medical terminology and thereby increase the value of the reports. We discuss our findings throughout this study and the open questions left to be explored. In particular, we discuss potential extensions to the general medical domain.
