The Web has become a major vehicle in performing research and practice related activities for healthcare researchers and practitioners, because it has so many resources and potentials to offer in their specialized professional fields. There is tremendous amount of information and knowledge existing on the Web and waiting to be discovered, shared and utilized. The research in improving the quality of life through the Web has become attractive. In this paper, we present an approach regarding Semantic Web and mining in healthcare, which can be used to not only improve the quality of Web mining results but also enhances the functions and services and the interoperability of medical information systems and standards in the healthcare field.
