摘要：

This study introduces ontological aspects concerning the Telehealth Ontology (TEON), an ontology that represents formal-ontological content concerning the delivery of telehealth services. TEON formally represents the main services, actors and other entity types relevant to telehealth service delivery. TEON uses the upper level ontology BioTopLite2 and reuses content from the Ontology for Biomedical Investigations (OBI). The services embedded in telehealth services are considered as essential as the common services provided by the health-related practices. We envision TEON as a service to support the development of telehealth systems. TEON might also enable the integration of heterogeneous telehealth systems, and provide a base to automatize the processing of telehealth-related content.
