Domain ontology or background knowledge facilitates the implementation of knowledge intensive case based reasoning systems. Based on the conceptual model of SNOMED CT, this research will propose a methodology for building ontology for diabetes concepts based on most recent diabetes clinical guidelines. All concepts, descriptions and relationships related to diabetes mellitus diagnosis including laboratory tests will be collected from SNOMED CT standard terminology. The resulting subset will be converted into OWL ontology. The resulting ontology can be used in case based reasoning system for semantic retrieval and other tasks.
