In today's digital society, characterized by the Semantic Web and by Linked Data, ontologies, in the sense of Knowledge Engineering, have paved the way for new perspectives for Terminology , namely in what concerns the operation-alization of terminological products. The collaborative work involving Terminology and ontologies has led to the emergence of new theoretical perspectives, one of which being Onto-terminology. This approach aims to reconcile Terminology's linguistic and conceptual dimensions whilst maintaining their fundamental differences and, in addition, enables the construction of a computer-readable representation of a given conceptualization. Bearing this in mind, this paper presents the EndoTerm project , a multilingual resource within the medical domain – with as the core concept – that comprises both verbal and non-verbal representations and that can be computa-tionally represented and manipulated. The presentation of micro-concept systems based on these verbal and non-verbal representations will support a reflection upon the role of the latter in terminology work.
