Blog from October, 2024

Dear all,

The 2024 Production release of the SNOMED CT Orphanet Map package is now available from the MLDS distribution site.  This release is dependent upon, and should therefore be consumed in conjunction with the July 2024 SNOMED CT International Edition.

All files distributed for this release are available from the “July 2024 PRODUCTION Release v1.0” version in the “SNOMED CT Orphanet Map package” project, which can be found on the “SNOMED Releases” page in MLDS, accessed here (please ensure that you login to MLDS first): 

The SNOMED CT Orphanet Map release is distributed in a zipped archive file in the official RF2 format as follows:

  • SnomedCT_SNOMEDOrphanetMapPackage_PRODUCTION_20241031T120000Z.zip

In line with the SNOMED International packaging guidelines, the Release Notes are separated from the release package, and so can be downloaded as distinct files from the same MLDS release version.  The Release Notes can also be accessed online:

Those Members using MLDS as their distribution site will find that their affiliates have access to the new release automatically.

If you have any questions about the Orphanet Map release, or have difficulties downloading the files, please contact SNOMED International at release@snomed.org with "July 2024 SNOMED CT Orphanet Map package Production release question” in the subject line.


Kind regards, 

Andrew Atkinson  |  Release Manager
