Glossary

A structured, maintained reference of technical and regulatory terminology used in healthcare AI. Each entry defines a term, explains its clinical or regulatory context, distinguishes it from commonly confused terms, and links to related articles, research digests, or policy documents on the site. Terms include AI/ML methodology vocabulary (LLM, foundation model, federated learning, RAG, AUROC, XAI), regulatory terminology (SaMD, PCCP, 510(k), De Novo, PMA), clinical informatics terms (FHIR, HL7, EHR, NLP, CDS), and privacy/security terms (HIPAA de-identification, re-identification risk, synthetic data). Glossary entries are not blog articles; they are reference objects with stable slugs, updated as terminology evolves. Serves all audience segments, particularly clinicians and administrators encountering technical AI language for the first time, and researchers who need precise definitional grounding.

Glossary entries are reference objects with stable slugs — not blog articles. Each entry is updated as terminology evolves, with a last-reviewed date indicating currency.
