Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • Entities (list) --

      The medical conditions detected in the text linked to ICD-10-CM concepts. If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response, as well as the entities detected.

      • (dict) --

        The collection of medical entities extracted from the input text and their associated information. For each entity, the response provides the entity text, the entity category, where the entity text begins and ends, and the level of confidence that Amazon Comprehend Medical has in the detection and analysis. Attributes and traits of the entity are also returned.

        • Id (integer) --

          The numeric identifier for the entity. This is a monotonically increasing id unique within this response rather than a global unique identifier.

        • Text (string) --

          The segment of input text that is matched to the detected entity.

        • Category (string) --

          The category of the entity. InferICD10CM detects entities in the MEDICAL_CONDITION category.

          • (dict) --

            The detected attributes that relate to an entity. This includes an extracted segment of the text that is an attribute of an entity, or otherwise related to an entity. InferICD10CM detects the following attributes: Direction, System, Organ or Site, and Acuity.
