NCIM Property Information
This skill provides detailed information about NCI Metathesaurus (NCIM) property codes that can be used when searching and filtering concepts in the NCI EVS API.
Overview
Properties in NCIM are attributes that provide additional information about concepts from the NCI Metathesaurus, which integrates multiple source vocabularies. When using the search_concepts tool, you can filter results by specific properties using the property parameter along with the value parameter.
Important: These properties can only be used when terminology is set to 'ncim'.
Property Categories
Properties are organized into logical categories for easier reference:
- Core Identifiers and Metadata
- Gene and Molecular Biology
- Chemical and Drug Information
- Clinical and Medical Coding
- Anatomical and Imaging
- Nutrition and Food Data
- Terminology Management and Mapping
- Deprecation and Version Control
- Publication and Reference Data

Notes
- Properties can be specified using their names exactly as shown (e.g.,
CAS_Registry, Semantic_Type)
- When using the
property parameter with search_concepts, you should also provide a value parameter to filter by specific property values
- Not all concepts have values for all properties
- NCIM integrates multiple source vocabularies, so property availability varies by source
- The
term parameter works together with property and value to further restrict results
- Property values are case-sensitive in most cases
- NCIM includes concepts from UMLS, SNOMED CT, and many other source terminologies
Property Selection Tips
- For Cross-Terminology Searching: Use source-specific IDs like
SNOMED_ID, CTV3ID
- For Gene Research: Use
HGNC_ID, EntrezGene_ID, GenBank_Accession_Number
- For Drug Information: Use
FDA_UNII_CODE, CAS_Registry, NCI_Drug_Dictionary_ID
- For Clinical Coding: Use
ICD-O-3_Code, SNOMED_ID, Neoplastic_Status
- For Anatomy: Use
FMAID, TALAIRACH, FREESURFER for anatomical structures
- For Mapping: Use the
MAPSET* and MTH_MAP* properties for terminology mappings
- For Version Control: Use deprecation properties to track concept history
- For Multilingual: Use
IS_SPANISH, PREFERRED_NAME_GERMAN, SYNONYM_GERMAN
Differences from NCIT Properties
NCIM (NCI Metathesaurus) differs from NCIT (NCI Thesaurus) in several ways:
- Integration: NCIM integrates concepts from multiple source vocabularies (UMLS, SNOMED CT, etc.)
- Mapping Properties: NCIM has extensive mapping properties for cross-terminology alignment
- Module Properties: NCIM includes SNOMED CT module and structure properties
- Multilingual: NCIM has properties for German and Spanish translations
- Source Tracking: NCIM tracks the contributing source for each concept
- Complexity: NCIM has more granular properties for drug dosage forms and strengths
