ctakes UMLS resources

Hello all,

I would like to ask with which UMLS release version cTAKES 3.2.2 works with .
The ctakes-resources zip file contains UMLS 2011AB release (available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ctakesresources/files/).
But, newer UMLS release versions are available (20155AA is the latest one) and I'm wondering if cTAKES can work with them.


Thank you,
Oranit.

Hi Oranit,

While 2011AB is the pre-packaged available version, ctakes can work with any version of the UMLS.  This question has come up before, but I don't believe that there is a JIRA ticket on it - maybe a ctakes version per umls version, or every AB version, or ??.  There is a tool in sandbox that will create a ctakes-compatible umls database, and if you search the archives you should find some instructions on its use.  A gui would be great, but we aren't there yet.

Sean
