* .). A group of us is working on it though but it will be some time before we release code.
I would be curious to know as to what do you guys do to ensure that the library starts extracting attributes specific to any new or arbitrary domain (like cancer). Perhaps it’s a naïve question…. But if we understood the steps involved, then we could add to the library. Is there any place we can get started? How easy or hard it is?

Currently, cTAKES discovers Diseases/Disorder, Signs/Symptoms, Procedures, Anatomical sites and Medications. Semantic typing is based on the UMLS. No cancer specific attributes yet (PSA, TNM staging, etc.). A group of us is working on it though but it will be some time before we release code. You can write your own annotator on top of cTAKES to discover PSA, TNM, etc. Hope this helps. --Guergana From: Sangram Patil [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 25, 2015 1:12 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Value extraction of text-note of cancer-patient Yes. Still if you know something and would like to point me somewhere, I would be very thankful.
