I am trying to extract the concepts that are in this sentence:

"The patien underwent a CT scan in April which did no reveal lesions in his liver."

The rest server finds a single concept: liver.

Many more concepts are extracted from the ctakes documentation for the clinical pipeline. I have checked this with the runctakesCVD and this is indeed the case.

In summary: there are some concepts that the rest accounts server does not recognize.

Many more concepts are extracted from the ctakes documentation for the clinical pipeline. This can be seen in the attached image.

Thanks for reporting. We're currently tracking this down -- the difference looks to be the way in which the newer cTAKES dictionary (based on 2021AA) was built compared to the one used to produce the cTAKES documentation (2016AB). I think the previous one gives more intuitive results so I'm trying to replicate that older dictionary style.

Thanks again for reporting this issue. The best we've been able to do is track it down to differences in the way the cTAKES dictionary creator GUI works now as compared to how different dictionary creator code worked back in 2016 when the previous dictionary was created. We are unfortunately unable to find that older code so I don't think this will go anywhere for a little bit.
