Hi Sean,
Thanks for your help.
Do you know if there’s a UMLS 2016 SNOMED CT dictionary available online? I
could that version then, rather than making my own.
Thanks.

Hi Martijn,
That is very strange. I don't know why the database would have an empty
table. It is acting like snomed codes were not found for any of your cuis in
your local umls installation, but that is terribly unlikely.
I ran the gui about two weeks ago and the secondary database tables were
populated.
Sorry that I can't help, this is unfortunate,
Sean

Hi Sean,
It’s an array, but I only sent you a single item out of that array.
The .xml file lists the snomedct_us table, but the database is empty. I’m
sure that I selected SNOMEDCT_US in the dictionarygui tool. Do you have any
idea why the database could be empty?
Thanks.

Hi Martijn,
The UmlsConcept should be in an array in the IdentifiedAnnotation.
Does your array only contain a single concept?
When you use the gui, it should store codes in the database as a unique
table for every (target) vocabulary that you selected in the left panel. The
.xml file that it creates should list all of those types in the
<conceptFactory> section. In your .xml you should see the line:
<property key="snomedct_usTable" value="long"/>
If that line is in the .xml, you can inspect your database directly
with a hsqldb tool. I can help you do that if needed. The db should have a
table named "snomedct_us".
If all of those are ok then I will need to look at the lookup code as
something must have broken.

Hi Sean,
Thanks! I used the GUI to generate a custom dictionary, but I still get
the UMLS code and not the SNOMED CT one.
If I print the concept that was detected it returns:
UmlsConcept
codingScheme: "custom"
code: <null>
oid: "null#custom"
oui: <null>
score: 0.0
disambiguated: false
cui: "C1281583"
tui: "T023"
preferredText: "Entire hand"
As you can see, the code is <null>. The concept is present in the UMLS
subset and there is also a SNOMED CT code listed there:
Entire hand [A3421866/SNOMEDCT_US/PT] CUI:C1281583 SCUI:302539009
Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Martijn,
The dictionary creator gui is in sandbox just like the command line
tool, but it is newer and easier to use.
OntologyConceptUtil is in org.apache.ctakes.core.util.

Hi Sean,
Thanks so much for your quick reply.
I used the command line directorytool. Is that different than the
gui? Can that explain the decrease in tagged concepts?
I’m not able to find the OntologyConceptUtil class, may I ask what
the path for that class is?

Hi Martijn,
Since you say that you've created your own dictionary I will
assume that you used the gui in sandbox to do so. If that isn't the case then
let me know.
The any dictionary created using the default settings on the
gui does have snomedct and rxnorm codes in addition to the cuis. However, umls
cui is always used as the primary normalization code for ctakes annotations.
To obtain codes for an annotation, check the
OntologyConceptUtil in ctakes core. It has methods that will return all
associated codes as well as one to get all associated codes for a
scheme/vocabulary (like snomedct_us, etc.). It can do this for a single
annotation, a collection of annotations, the entire document, or a section of
the document (sentence, paragraph, section). It also has methods that allow
you to fetch annotations found in the document by codes other than the umls cui.

Hi,
I've been using cTAKES for a bit now, but I still can't figure
out how to upgrade the UMLS version to the most recent one.
If I create my own dictionary, cTAKES only returns UMLS
concepts and no SNOMED CT ones (I'm interested in those). The amount of
concepts returned is also way less compared to the 2011 UMLS that's included
with cTAKES.
Can someone help me out by providing me a proper 2016
dictionary or clear explanation how to implement the newest version of the UMLS
(with SNOMED CT).
Thanks!
