These results show that the automatic approach has the potential to effectively extract clinical knowledge from an extensive set of electronic medical records, reducing the manual effort required and saving a significant amount of time. A deeper semantic analysis and further understanding of the context in the text, as well as training on a larger and more recent set of reports, including those containing highly variable entities and the use of ontologies, could further improve the results.
