                                       Mobile Apps

    The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA(R)), the leading international society
of radiologists, medical physicists and other medical professionals, today announced it
has signed a strategic Software as a Service (SaaS) agreement with TEMIS, the provider of
Semantic Content Enrichment solutions who received the 2013 CODiE Award for Best Semantic
Solution with Luxid(R).

    RSNA hosts the world's premier radiology forum, drawing over 55,000 attendees annually
to McCormick Place in Chicago, and publishes two flagship peer-reviewed journals:
Radiology, the highest-impact scientific journal in the field, and RadioGraphics, the only
journal dedicated to continuing education in radiology.

    RSNA will use Luxid(R) Content Enrichment Platform to provide its 53,000 members with
an enhanced search and navigation experience within and across its Journal, Education and
Scientific content. "Among RSNA's goals for semantic enrichment of its content through
Luxid(R) are the application of our lexicon, RadLex, and surfacing additional related
content from all RSNA resources to journal users," said Roberta Arnold, Assistant
Executive Director for Publications & Communications, RSNA.

    Specifically, RSNA will embed Luxid(R) within its Atypon Literatum ePublishing
platform to power automated tagging, categorization and linking of its Journal content.
RSNA will also deploy Luxid(R) on the myRSNA knowledge portal that hosts a broad variety
of content including journals, education and certification materials, as well as
conference proceedings. TEMIS will produce rich metadata on RSNA content assets by
leveraging its off-the-shelf extraction components as well as RSNA's own taxonomy, RadLex.

    "TEMIS is proud to welcome RSNA in its growing community of customers," said Guillaume
Mazieres, Executive Vice President, North America and Worldwide Publishing, TEMIS. "The
combination of RSNA's high-quality content assets with our semantic enrichment
capabilities will help them deliver more targeted and contextual content to their
members."

    Based on patented and award-winning natural language processing technologies, Luxid(R)
Content Enrichment Platform meets the needs of organizations to better structure, manage
and exploit their unstructured content. Luxid(R) includes domain-specific extractors
called Skill Cartridges(R) to extract relevant information from unstructured text and
semantically enrich it with metadata that reveals its content. This enables Publishers to
efficiently package and deliver differentiated and compelling information products to
their audience, and helps Enterprises to intelligently archive, manage, analyze, discover
and share increasing volumes of information.
