Hi Yatrik, 1. Download the full umls from nlm. https://www.nlm.nih.gov/research/umls/licensedcontent/umlsknowledgesources.html
2. Extract everything that you want using MetamorphoSys. 3. Use the ctakes dictionary creator gui to create a ctakes-compatible database. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CTAKES/Dictionary+Creator+GUI It sounds like you want to select all of the sources and all of the semantic types.

As per my understanding this dictionary is subset of UMLS dictionary. I require to use full UMLS dictionary. Is it possible access online UMLS dictionary from cTakes API code ? Or Do I need to download the full dictionary and use it ? Thanks, Yatrik
