Abstract

In this paper discussed are the manners of applying methods of computational intelligence to the development of a syntactic semantic description of spatial visualisations of the heart’s coronary vessels. The IT methodology described in this work makes it possible to find, for each biological 3D structure considered, its semantic description whose elements make reference to the medical significance of the entire structure described, while at the same time refrain from the formal differences of individual visualisations.
