At least one term that is in both the patient NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms and the HP NCI Dictionary of Genetics Terms has multiple identical images displaying on Cancer.gov. This will occur if the image has been added to the definition blocks for each dictionary in the GTC record. For example, the term "base pair" on cancer.gov displays two identical images beneath the definition because this media link has been added to both definition blocks and despite the fact that the image contains captions for different audiences (HP & patient). (The captions happen to be identical in this case.)

See http://cancer.gov/dictionary?CdrID=460130

It is important that we obtain the ability to display images with different audience captions in both the HP and patient dictionaries. The solution Volker, Margaret, and I discussed today will involve making changes to Gatekeeper mostly, but it will also involve some preparation of the CDR data in order to provide the audience information to Gatekeeper. We can discuss this some more in this week's CDR meeting. For the time being, CIAT plans to include only a single media link in cases like "base pair".

An email chain about this is pasted below:

We may need to do this (pick the images based on language and audience) now that we are generating the Genetics Dictionary from the CDR since there will be a few images in there that may have different captions/descriptions than what use for the patient terms. What do you think Robin?

Thanks,

Margaret

If this is the first time that we're including an image for the English patient and HP version than this may be a bigger problem.

When the filter creates the vendor output it first creates the TermDefinition, then all of the MediaLinks and then the SpanishTermDefinition.
For the MediaLinks we're first listing the audio and then the images where the images are listed with a language attribute for Gatekeeper to identify which of the images need to be placed with which of the language. The MediaLink, however, does not specify an audience and therefore both of the images for the English language are being displayed.

For this situation, since the image and the captions for both audience types are identical you could just remove one of the MediaLinks. For a long term solution we will have to modify our filters and request Cancer.gov to pick the images based on language and audience.

Thanks,

Volker

Hi Volker,
Please check the following link:
http://cancer.gov/dictionary?CdrID=460130

The English image is duplicated on Cancer.gov and that might be because, last week, we added another Caption and Content Description for Patient audience to fix the Media Link warning message. It seems to me that this should be a problem but it looks like it is a problem on Cancer.gov.

Thanks,
William
