SNOMED Clinical Terms (SNOMED CT) provides:

SNOMED CT is a comprehensive clinical terminology designed to be the core vocabulary for electronic health records, enabling structured, computable documentation of patient data. It includes a large, actively maintained set of concepts—over 311,000—each with formal, logic-based definitions and rich relationships (such as is-a and part-of) that support precise coding, interoperability, and advanced decision support. This makes it the proper foundation for representing clinical information in EHRs, far beyond what billing codes or imaging standards cover. It is not a billing code set like CPT/HCPCS, nor a diagnostic imaging standard like DICOM, nor a file format for medical images.
