Layout of the Navigate Terms View

The Navigate Terms tab can be used to find ontology items to be used in a query. This tab is designed to display the i2b2 query terms or concepts. These terms are grouped with similar items and displayed in a hierarchical tree structure that can be expanded to view all items in the category.
