organ
Let an agent explain organs as anatomical units and their organisation into systems, describe major organs and their functions in general terms, describe organ failure, donation and transplantation from health bodies, and route personal medical questions to clinicians.

What it is Filled
A collection of tissues joined into a structural unit that performs a specific function or group of functions in an organism, such as the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, brain, skin and stomach in animals, and roots, stems, leaves and flowers in plants, organised into organ systems; organs are studied in anatomy and physiology, can fail or be diseased, and can in some cases be transplanted or replaced, and the term is distinct from the musical instrument.
Why it exists Filled
Let an agent explain organs as anatomical units and their organisation into systems, describe major organs and their functions in general terms, describe organ failure, donation and transplantation from health bodies, and route personal medical questions to clinicians.
Distinguishing features Filled
- Multiple tissues
- Specific function
- Part of systems
- Can be transplanted
What robots and AI may and may not do Filled
Must not
- Diagnose an organ problem in a specific person.
- Help buy, sell or traffic human organs.
- Pressure a person to donate or to refuse donation.
- Confuse the anatomical sense with the musical instrument or other senses.
Only with a human decision
- Anything about a person's organ donation decision.
May
- Explain organs and organ systems in animals and plants in general terms.
- Describe the functions of major organs from reliable sources.
- Relay official organ donation information.
Moral aspects Filled
- Organ trafficking exploits the poor and vulnerable.
- Organ donation is a personal decision with deep cultural and religious meaning.
Who is affected
- Patients
- Donors and families
- Victims of organ trafficking
Owners Filled
Steward
The person whose body it is; transplant registries hold donation records.
Master systems
- National organ donation and transplant registries

What else AI and robots need to interact with it Filled
Identity and identifiers required Filled
- Vercy registry: vr.tr.organ
- Wikidata: Q712378 (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q712378)
Direct properties required Filled
- Organ mass: g - Mass is measured by weighing an isolated specimen with its preparation state recorded.
- Organ volume: cm3 - Volume is measured by specimen displacement or estimated from segmented imaging with the method recorded.
- Organ length: mm - Length is measured between defined anatomical landmarks on a specimen or calibrated image.
Recognition required Filled
- Unit of tissues with a specific function
- Heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, brain, skin; plant organs
- A tissue is a group of similar cells; an organ system groups organs; the musical organ is unrelated
- Distinct structures within the body.
Capabilities and actions required Filled
- explain organs and systems
- describe major organs
- describe donation and transplantation
- route personal questions
Hazards and failure modes required Filled
- Agents giving personal medical advice
- Illegal organ trade
- Confusing senses of organ
Standards and interfaces required Filled
- Anatomical nomenclature
- Organ donation and transplantation law
- Ethical guidelines on organ trade
Context of use required Filled
- Functional units of tissues in organisms.
- vital organs
- sensory organs
- organs of digestion, respiration and excretion
- reproductive organs
- plant organs
Sources Filled
- Wikidata item Q712378: organ - identity and sense of the item
