Welcome to PyMedTermino’s documentation!

PyMedTermino (Medical Terminologies for Python) is a Python module for easy access to the main medical terminologies in Python, including SNOMED CT, ICD10, UMLS and VCM icons. PyMedTermino has been designed for “batch” access to terminologies; it is not a terminology browser. SNOMED CT, ICD10 and UMLS data are not included (because they are not freely redistribuable) but they can be downloaded for free in XML format, for research / academic purpose (see PyMedTermino tutorial for links).

PyMedTermino is available under the GNU LGPL licence, and it has been created by Jean-Baptiste Lamy:
