【 摘 要 】

The name of a medical specialty is a dynamic one because it changes according to chronological contextual needs. We analyzed 12 medical specialties nomenclatures for a 20 years period and we described the conceptual model of this change. The division, correspondence, renaming, fusion, creation, return and cancellation have been identified as operations, composing an “informational engine”. We found 754 links between 692 different medical specialties instances. The resulting application is an electronic dictionary for the medical specialties correspondences. The project should be extended to all the European countries, even to create an online database for the next European professional card.
