Hi Reed,

Did you enable UMLS?

I am also not quite happy with the result. When I run this test sentence in the 
DefaultClinicalPipeline I am getting 4 IdentifiedAnnotation (AnnotationIndex -> 
uima.tcas.Annotation -> 
org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.textsem.IdentifiedAnnotation).
Namely, ProcedureMention (“scan”), RomanNumericalAnnotation (“did”), 
SignSymptomAnnotation (“lesions”) and AnatomicalSiteMention (“liver”). 
“lesions” is negated as indicated by Polarity=-1.

This does not seem error-free to me, still. Could anyone confirm this is the 
expected result, please?

Cheers,
Gundolf.

Subject: Default clinical pipeline does not appear to work as advertised by the 
docs' graphic showing its use, how to get there?

Running the exact same test ("The patient underwent a CT scan in April which 
did not reveal lesions in his liver") as shown for the default clinical 
pipeline 
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CTAKES/Default+Clinical+Pipeline) 
and examining the XMI output in the ctakesCVD, does not seem to extract the 
same information as shown in the graphic in the docs demonstrating what 
information is taken from that same sentence.

Eg.
* The only detect EntityMention was "liver" and I could not find where it had 
received a tag value of "Anatomy".
* Looking at the AnnotationIndex.IdentifiedAnnotations, there seems to be no 
"Entity Properties" data as implied in the docs (such as "lesions" having the 
property of "negated").

I feel that I must have missed something here, am looking in the wrong place, 
or something else? Please advise, thank you.
