Lexigram

API

NLP API for extracting clinical concepts and accessing standard medical ontologies

Overview

The Lexigram API is a health-focused NLP tool that extracts structured clinical concepts (medications, conditions, procedures) from unstructured text (clinical notes, patient records). It provides access to curated clinical ontologies (SNOMED CT, RxNorm) to map entities to standard medical codes. Endpoints include text analysis for concept extraction, ontology lookup, and entity linking. JSON responses enable seamless integration into EHR systems, clinical decision support tools, or health tech apps. Use cases: clinical documentation automation, patient data normalization, and enhancing healthcare data interoperability.

Example Integration (JavaScript)

script.js JS


fetch('https://docs.lexigram.io/')
  .then(res => res.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data))
  .catch(err => console.error(err));
