Terminology functions

The library also provides a set of functions for querying a FHIR terminology server from within your queries and transformations.

Value set membership

The member_of function can be used to test the membership of a code within a FHIR value set. This can be used with both explicit value sets (i.e. those that have been pre-defined and loaded into the terminology server) and implicit value sets (e.g. SNOMED CT Expression Constraint Language).

In this example, we take a list of SNOMED CT diagnosis codes and create a new column which shows which are viral infections. We use an ECL expression to define viral infection as a disease with a pathological process of "Infectious process", and a causative agent of "Virus".

Concept translation

The translate function can be used to translate codes from one code system to another using maps that are known to the terminology server. In this example, we translate our SNOMED CT diagnosis codes into Read CTV3.

Please note that the type of the output column is the array of coding structs, as the translation may produce multiple results for each input coding.

Subsumption testing

Subsumption test is a fancy way of saying "is this code equal or a subtype of this other code".

For example, a code representing "ankle fracture" is subsumed by another code representing "fracture". The "fracture" code is more general, and using it with subsumption can help us find other codes representing different subtypes of fracture.

The subsumes function allows us to perform subsumption testing on codes within our data. The order of the left and right operands can be reversed to query whether a code is "subsumed by" another code.

Retrieving properties

Some terminologies contain additional properties that are associated with codes. You can query these properties using the property_of function.

There is also a display function that can be used to retrieve the preferred display term for each code.

Python

Scala
Java

pc = PathlingContext.create()
csv = pc.spark.read.csv("conditions.csv")

# Get the parent codes for each code in the dataset.

        "PARENTS",
        property_of(to_snomed_coding(csv.CODE), "parent", PropertyType.CODE),
)
# Split each parent code into a separate row.
exploded_parents = parents.selectExpr(
        "CODE", "DESCRIPTION", "explode_outer(PARENTS) AS PARENT"
)
# Retrieve the preferred term for each parent code.
with_displays = exploded_parents.withColumn(

Multi-language support

The library enables communication of a preferred language to the terminology server using the Accept-Language HTTP header, as described in Multi-language support in FHIR. The header may contain multiple languages, with weighted preferences as defined in RFC 9110. The server can use the header to return the result in the preferred language if it is able. The actual behaviour may depend on the server implementation and the code systems used.

The default value for the header can be configured during the creation of the PathlingContext with the accept_language or acceptLanguage parameter. The parameter with the same name can also be used to override the default value in display() and property_of() functions.

Authentication

Pathling can be configured to connect to a protected terminology server by supplying a set of OAuth2 client credentials and a token endpoint.

Here is an example of how to authenticate to the NHS terminology server:

Python
R
Scala
Java

from pathling import PathlingContext

pc = PathlingContext.create(
        terminology_server_url='https://ontology.nhs.uk/production1/fhir',
        token_endpoint='https://ontology.nhs.uk/authorisation/auth/realms/nhs-digital-terminology/protocol/openid-connect/token',
        client_id='[client ID]',
        client_secret='[client secret]'
)

library(sparklyr)
library(pathling)

pc <- pathling_connect(
        terminology_server_url = "https://ontology.nhs.uk/production1/fhir",
        token_endpoint = "https://ontology.nhs.uk/authorisation/auth/realms/nhs-digital-terminology/protocol/openid-connect/token",
        client_id = "[client ID]",
        client_secret = "[client secret]"
)

import au.csiro.pathling.library.{PathlingContext, PathlingContextConfiguration}

val config = PathlingContextConfiguration.builder()
        .terminologyServerUrl("https://ontology.nhs.uk/production1/fhir")
        .tokenEndpoint("https://ontology.nhs.uk/authorisation/auth/realms/nhs-digital-terminology/protocol/openid-connect/token")
        .clientId("[client ID]")
        .clientSecret("[client secret]")
        .build()
val pc = PathlingContext.create(config)

import au.csiro.pathling.library.PathlingContext;
import au.csiro.pathling.library.PathlingContextConfiguration;

class MyApp {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        PathlingContextConfiguration config = PathlingContextConfiguration.builder()
                .terminologyServerUrl(
                        "https://ontology.nhs.uk/production1/fhir")
                .tokenEndpoint(
                        "https://ontology.nhs.uk/authorisation/auth/realms/nhs-digital-terminology/protocol/openid-connect/token")
                .clientId("[client ID]")
                .clientSecret("[client secret]")
                .build();
        PathlingContext pc = PathlingContext.create(config);
        // ...
    }
}
