Hello,

I created a custom Dictionary using Dictionary creator GUI tool and the XML 
file for it is created in the folder 
org/apache/ctakes/dictionary/lookup/fast/foobar.xml as mentioned by Mike.

Post this I make required change in  UmlsLookupAnnotator.xml file for the 
“DictionaryDescriptor” attribute.

But on running the piper file with Piper-runner tool, the default sno_rx_ab17 
file is used.

If I use the ‘-l’ option followed with custom dictionary xml path with 
piper-runner tool, then the custom dictionary is used for UMLS lookup.

Can someone please help me in getting the solution Mike suggested ie. modifying 
“DictionaryDescriptor” attribute, to work ?

Regards,

Hi,
For example, if you use AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml  you can update 
apache-ctakes-4.0.0\desc\ctakes-dictionary-lookup-fast\desc\analysis_engine\UmlsLookupAnnotator.xml
  and provide there a path to you database for DictionaryDescriptor, in my case 
this is org/apache/ctakes/dictionary/lookup/fast/icd10.xml
Best regards,
Mike

Hello Mike,

How/Where do you specify what Dictionary that you want to use with CVD with a 
particular AE ?

Subject: cTAKES UMLS ICD10 codes lookup

Hello,

I created a cTAKES custom dictionary from UMLS database with ICD10 codes.

Right now I able to analyze the text by for example disease name, like "Asthma" 
and annotation index will contain the ICD10 code for this match "code = 
"J45.90".


Is it possible to configure cTAKES in order to reverse this process in order to 
look for ICD10 code appearance in the text instead?

Thanks,
Mike
