Draft:Anatomy Mapper

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anatomy Mapper technology development began in 2009 when it was founded by Dr. Matthew Molenda, with the first mapping models posted online to describe human surface anatomy.[1] The standardized language posted on the Anatomy Mapper website in 2018 was adopted into ICD-11[2][3] by the World Health Organization and represents a validated[4], international standard that can be used to describe health findings related to surface anatomy.  In 2023, Anatomy Mapper launched a free educational version with new multi-dimensional mapping models that generate enhanced language descriptions and codes to accurately and precisely describe anatomy with a single click.  In 2023, Dr. Molenda was also selected for grant funding by the United States National Cancer Institute (NCI) for a project that aims to apply the Anatomy Mapper language models, language-vision models, and vision-language models to skin cancer location tracking and communication.[5]

The free educational version of Anatomy Mapper technology is available at https://edu.anatomymapper.com and is designed to support over 100 languages.[6]  Registration is free, and registered users can generate and organize lists of anatomic sites and their notes.  Registered users can also view a visual library of standardized anatomic sites.  The first edition of Anatomy Mapper ® visual library has over 3.2 million language-vision pairs and over 20 million trainable language parameters just for surface anatomy.  The visual library serves as a source of truth based on validated standards for future Artificial Intelligence applications in health care documentation, delivery, communication, and research.[7]
