RelationshipScore (float) --
The level of confidence that Comprehend Medical has that this attribute is correctly related to this entity.
Id (integer) --
The numeric identifier for this attribute. This is a monotonically increasing id unique within this response rather than a global unique identifier.
BeginOffset (integer) --
The 0-based character offset in the input text that shows where the attribute begins. The offset returns the UTF-8 code point in the string.
EndOffset (integer) --
The 0-based character offset in the input text that shows where the attribute ends. The offset returns the UTF-8 code point in the string.
Text (string) --
The segment of input text extracted as this attribute.
Traits (list) --
Contextual information for this attribute.
(dict) --
Provides contextual information about the extracted entity.
Name (string) --
Provides a name or contextual description about the trait.
Score (float) --
The level of confidence that Comprehend Medical has in the accuracy of this trait.
PaginationToken (string) --
If the result of the previous request to DetectPHI was truncated, include the Paginationtoken to fetch the next page of PHI entities.
Inspects the clinical text for a variety of medical entities and returns specific information about them such as entity category, location, and confidence score on that information .
