ONKI3 | Medical Subject Headings

The ONKI is provided as a part of the ONKI Living Lab - an open lab for testing the latest semantic web technologies in practice, with real users like you. Currently, over 10 000 people are using ONKI each month.

We hope you like the ONKI service and enjoy using it for your purposes!

If you encounter any problems or have improvement ideas, please contact the ONKI team. We are also very much interested in your success stories in using ONKI - please share your experiences!

Annotation:	usually to replace function, as HEART, ARTIFICIAL or KIDNEY, ARTIFICIAL: do not confuse with PROSTHESES AND IMPLANTS which is usually cosmetic; not for injections, like silicones, to replace substance; coord IM with specific organ (IM) with no qualif but note available precoords X
Scope note:	Devices intended to replace non-functioning organs. They may be temporary or permanent. Since they are intended always to function as the natural organs they are replacing, they should be differentiated from PROSTHESES AND IMPLANTS and specific types of prostheses which, though also replacements for body parts, are frequently cosmetic (EYE, ARTIFICIAL) as well as functional (ARTIFICIAL LIMBS).
