Text analysis API operations - Amazon Comprehend Medical

Text analysis API operations

Use Amazon Comprehend Medical to examine clinical documents and to gain various insights about their content using pre-trained natural language processing (NLP) models. You can perform analysis both on single files or as a batch analysis on multiple files stored in an Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket.

With Amazon Comprehend Medical, you can perform the following on your documents:

  • Detect entities (Version 2) — Examine unstructured clinical text to detect textual references to medical information such as medical condition, treatment, tests and results, and medications. This version uses a different model than the original Detect entities API, and there are a few changes in the output.

  • Detect PHI — Examine unstructured clinical text to detect textual references to protected health information (PHI) such as names and addresses.

  • Detect entities — Examine unstructured clinical text to detect textual references to medical information such as medical condition, treatment, tests and results, and medications. Use DetectEntitiesV2 for all new applications.

Amazon Comprehend Medical supports multiple API operations that you can use to perform batch text analysis on clinical documents. To learn more about how to use these API operations, see Text analysis batch APIs.
