Validated and standardized terminology ensures your records are always clear, consistent, and audit-ready
Improving Everyday Research Practice
At PicoTeam, we’ve launched a new feature: a locally deployed, grounded AI, fine-tuned with the SNOMED CT veterinary extension, integrated into our digital cage card system. This grounded approach ensures the AI not only recognizes, but also operates strictly within the official veterinary medical ontology—meaning the displayed data is based on validated, standardized terminology. Seamlessly integrated into our application, the AI standardizes and summarizes clinical findings in real time, supporting greater clarity and compliance throughout your workflow.
Why Grounding in SNOMED CT veterinary extension Matters
• Built-in Self-Validation
The AI features a robust self-validation mechanism, continually checking outputs against the SNOMED CT ontology to maintain medical standards. It uses dedicated datasets and actively monitors terminology, resulting in consistently accurate terms.
• Preserving Medical Relationships
Our model maintains the SNOMED CT structure, allowing the AI to understand links between conditions, symptoms, and anatomical sites. This enables it to interpret complex medical hierarchies and provide users with reliable, context-aware insights.
Key Benefits for Research Facilities
• From Free Text to Structured Data
Researchers can enter observations naturally, in free text. The system automatically maps these entries to SNOMED CT entries, providing a consistent, structured format across different researchers and facilities.
• Local Deployment Means Data Security
Our AI runs in our SaaS solution or on-premises—there are no external API calls and no risk of sensitive data leaving your facility. You maintain complete control over your data and the AI model itself.
Conclusion
PicoTeam’s AI-powered digital cage cards bring clarity, accuracy, and compliance to everyday research workflows. With secure, private deployment and automated standardization, your team benefits from fewer errors and easier regulatory processes.
We help you keep information in animal facilities consistent, efficient, and audit-ready.
