RE: code value for vocabulary in dic-lookup-fast

Hi Harpreet,

I don't know if this has yet been answered (I'm still finding vacation-time emails), but the Snomed-ct, Rx-norm, etc. codes were removed from the -fast dictionary for speed.  Basically, any single UMLS Cui can have multiple different snomed-ct codes (for instance), and adding extra rows per-code leads to a lot of waste.  A post- Cui assignment step could be performed to assign non-unique snomed-ct codes (for instance) to discovered unique Cuis.  I am actually (slowly) conceptualizing an annotator that does just that - mapping Cuis to other source codes.  It would be an optional annotator, lean and fast.  No promise on a date for startup code in sandbox.
