SNOMED CT Translation Tools support the creation of SNOMED CT descriptions in different languages, while enforcing a quality assurance process that includes reviews and validations against guidelines and specifications.

SNOMED CT is a global terminology and it was designed from the ground up to be multi-lingual. The concepts are abstract clinical ideas and are separated from the terms used to describe them. Translation tools support the creation of SNOMED CT descriptions (terms) in different languages while enforcing a quality assurance process that includes reviews and validations against guidelines and specifications.

Translations are ongoing projects, as new content is created on each new SNOMED CT release the translations are updated to match the international edition.
