-----------------------------------------
Summary: include term rather than just CUI(s)
Key: CTAKES-17
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-17
Project: cTAKES
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: ctakes-dictionary-lookup
Reporter: James Joseph Masanz
Priority: Minor
"I actually think it would really nice if cTAKES stores the snomed preferred
term as well as the CUI. So the descriptions that downstream consumers could
use should actually be the preferred term instead of .getCoveredText()... Just
my 2 cents..."
I think it would be good to have an option to control this. perhaps with the
default being to include the description. but people in a production
environment might not want it included for performance or space reasons.
One consideration is - do we include the SNOMED preferred term or the UMLS
Concept name -- probably the concept name because there can be more than one
SNOMED code for a single CUI (and therefore more than one SNOMED preferred term
for a single CUI)
