The purpose of this study was to construct a mammography examination process ontology for knowledge sharing among RTs and propose a new ontology construction method using an affinity diagram (AD) and hierarchical task analysis (HTA). First, tasks collected by brainstorming were clustered and connected using the AD. Subsequently, a hierarchical structure was constructed based on the clusters and relations determined in the AD. Finally, a mammography process ontology was determined based on the relations noted in the AD and HTA. As a result, the ontology contained 203 classes and 669 relations., Medinfo 2013}, title = {Constructing Mammography Examination Process Ontology Using Affinity Diagram and Hierarchical Task Analysis.}, year = {2013} }
