The Graphic Descriptor Ontology (GDO) is intended for use in describing graphics that represent the form of objects. The Graphic Descriptor Ontology Anatomy extension (GDOA) extends the GDO to the domain of anatomical graphics by providing classes for anatomical views and anatomically-relevant region mark roles, such as representing a type of body tissue or body fluid.
