General Information about the Project

Find official information about GeMTeX on the official website!

GeMTeX is a project funded by the German Medical Informatics Initiative (MII) and aims at releasing the largest real-text clinical text corpus of the German language, along with SNOMED CT annotations. Among 18 technical and methodological partners, six German University Hospitals compile, de-identify, and annotate real discharge letters, anamnesis reports, or counselings:

• Charité Berlin
• University Hospital Dresden
• University Hospital Erlangen
• University Hospital Essen
• University Hospital Leipzig
• TUM University Hospital Munich

The whole de-identification and annotation process is managed with INCEpTION, an open-source annotation platform. We use Averbis Health Discovery for automatic pre-annotations and ID Logic for refinement of the SNOMED CT concept annotations.
