INTRODUCTION The goal of the NLM's UMLS project is to integrate information from various sources, including clinical records, so as to improve access to biomedical information both for clinicians and patients. This could be achieved only if patient-description vocabularies able to represent data in the same detail as used in progress notes are developed and integrated into the Metathesaurus . The 2001 edition of the UMLS does not include a terminology adequate to the gastrointestinal endoscopy (GIE) specialty. The Minimal Standard Terminology (MST) is an authoritative controlled list of preferred terms to be used for description of "Reasons for performing the endoscopy", "Findings", "Endoscopic Diagnosis" and other details of examination in GIE reports.
