I need to map some disease names to MeSH headings. But in some cases there is not a unique mapping. for example: I need to find out what is MeSH heading for 'lung cancer' disease. could anyone help me?!

Well. Annotation of data (to ontologies) IS not that simple. In other words, no nobody can help you. If there are multiple hits you have to think about what you exactly want to narrow down the options until there is only one, hopefully the exact match left. This is domain specific and depends on your data etc ... so you just have to think about it, read about it. But you are one step ahead of many people if you realise that there are multiple hits! Most people just pick the very first term that pops up and that is .... very bad.
