A domain specific ontology that provides the framework for describing Medical Devices.
A medical device is any device intended to be used for medical purposes. Thus what differentiates a medical device from an everyday device is its intended use. (wikipedia)
MDO-core is designed to be a small ontology, perhaps less than 100 classes and relations describing the common features across a wide variety of medical devices. Sub-domain ontologies can extend the MDO-core to describe specific devices in detail.
MDO-core ontology IRI

will use the following namespace pattern:
http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/MDOC_nnnnnnn
MDOC_ = term prefix
