Yottalook is a Web search engine that allows imaging specialists to obtain radiology-specific content and images from both the Internet and within the enterprise (www.yottalook.com). In this refresher course we will demonstrates the use and applications of a medical imaging search engine that identifies and retrieves online peer-reviewed content (including images) not indexed by generic search engines. Users will also learn how Yottalook enhances the search experience by analyzing user queries and modifying them in real time with RadLex-driven ontologies.
