Abstract

In this paper the development of a system for automated processing of medical English is investigated. The parsing algorithms for morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis of medical diagnoses are described. The immediate objective of this research is the automatic encoding of pathology data. The long-range goal of the system is its expansion and application to general medical text.
