A while ago our physician colleague John Green created 16 realistically looking 
(but fake) clinical notes. Many thanks again, John!

These notes are in ctakes-examples/data/notes. We now volunteer to annotate 
them with gold annotations. The main elements with their attributes are:
Medications, Attributes ::= span   associatedCode change_status_model 
conditional  dosage_model duration_model  end_date form_model frequency_model 
generic negation_indicator  route_model  start_date  strength_model  subject  
uncertainty_indicator


Signs/Symptoms, Attributes ::= associated_code body_location conditional course 
duration end_time generic historyOf negation_indicator 
relative_temporal_context severity start_time subject uncertainty_indicator



Anatomical Sites, Attributes ::= associatedCode  conditional  generic  
negation_indicator  subject  uncertainty_indicator



Disease/DisordersAttributes ::= associated_code body_location conditional 
course duration end_time  generic historyOf negation_indicator 
relative_temporal_context severity start_time subject uncertainty_indicator



Procedures, Attributes ::= associated_code  body_location conditional duration 
end_time generic historyOf method negation_indicator relative_temporal_context 
start_time subject uncertainty_indicator



We expect to have the gold annotations by end of March. We are using the 
Anafora annotation tool (https://github.com/weitechen/anafora ) and will 
release the annotations in the xml format.
