For instance diabetes mellitus is recognized as a clinical concept , however diabetic is not recognized. Similarly catheterrization is annotated as medical concept however catheterized is not considered valid. Attached herewith are screenshots for the same. Kindly let me know is this also related to batch processing or is this a limitation of cTAKES Aggregate UMLS Document Processor.
