Use the Healthcare Natural Language API

This page explains how to enable the Healthcare Natural Language API, configure permissions, and call the analyzeEntities method to extract medical insights from medical text.

Overview

The Healthcare Natural Language API provides machine learning solutions for deriving insights from medical text. The Healthcare Natural Language API is part of the Cloud Healthcare API. For an overview of the Healthcare Natural Language API, see the Healthcare Natural Language API conceptual documentation.

The Healthcare Natural Language API parses unstructured medical text such as medical records or insurance claims. It then generates a structured data representation of the medical knowledge entities stored in these data sources for downstream analysis and automation. For example, you can:

Extract information about medical concepts like diseases, medications, medical devices, procedures, and their clinically relevant attributes
Map medical concepts to standard medical vocabularies such as RxNorm, ICD-10, MeSH, and SNOMED CT (US and UK users only)
Derive medical insights from text and integrate them with data analytics products in Google Cloud

Available locations

The Healthcare Natural Language API is available in the following locations:

Location name	Location description
`asia-south1`	Mumbai, India
`australia-southeast1`	Sydney, Australia
`europe-west2`	London, UK
`europe-west4`	Netherlands
`northamerica-northeast1`	Montréal, Canada
`us-central1`	Iowa, USA

Enable the Healthcare Natural Language API

Before you begin using the Healthcare Natural Language API, you must enable the API for your Google Cloud project. You can use the Healthcare Natural Language API without enabling or using features of the Cloud Healthcare API.

To enable the API, complete the following steps:

Sign in to your Google Cloud account. If you're new to Google Cloud, create an account to evaluate how our products perform in real-world scenarios. New customers also get $300 in free credits to run, test, and deploy workloads.

In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

Go to project selector

Make sure that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

Create a service account:

In the Google Cloud console, go to the Create service account page.
Go to Create service account
Select your project.
In the Service account name field, enter a name. The Google Cloud console fills in the Service account ID field based on this name.

In the Service account description field, enter a description. For example, Service account for quickstart.
Click Create and continue.
Grant the Project > Owner role to the service account.

To grant the role, find the Select a role list, then select Project > Owner.

Note: The Role field affects which resources the service account can access in your project. You can revoke these roles or grant additional roles later. In production environments, do not grant the Owner, Editor, or Viewer roles. Instead, grant a predefined role or custom role that meets your needs.
Click Continue.
Click Done to finish creating the service account.

Do not close your browser window. You will use it in the next step.

Create a service account key:

In the Google Cloud console, click the email address for the service account that you created.
Click Keys.
Click Add key, and then click Create new key.
Click Create. A JSON key file is downloaded to your computer.
Click Close.

Set the environment variable GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS to the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials. This variable applies only to your current shell session, so if you open a new session, set the variable again.

Example: Linux or macOS

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

For example:

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/home/user/Downloads/service-account-file.json"

Example: Windows

For PowerShell:

$env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

For example:

$env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="C:\Users\username\Downloads\service-account-file.json"

For command prompt:

set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=KEY_PATH

Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

In the Google Cloud console, on the project selector page, select or create a Google Cloud project.

Go to project selector

Make sure that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

Create a service account:

In the Google Cloud console, go to the Create service account page.
Go to Create service account
Select your project.
In the Service account name field, enter a name. The Google Cloud console fills in the Service account ID field based on this name.

In the Service account description field, enter a description. For example, Service account for quickstart.
Click Create and continue.
Grant the Project > Owner role to the service account.

To grant the role, find the Select a role list, then select Project > Owner.

Note: The Role field affects which resources the service account can access in your project. You can revoke these roles or grant additional roles later. In production environments, do not grant the Owner, Editor, or Viewer roles. Instead, grant a predefined role or custom role that meets your needs.
Click Continue.
Click Done to finish creating the service account.

Do not close your browser window. You will use it in the next step.

Create a service account key:

In the Google Cloud console, click the email address for the service account that you created.
Click Keys.
Click Add key, and then click Create new key.
Click Create. A JSON key file is downloaded to your computer.
Click Close.

Example: Linux or macOS

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

For example:

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/home/user/Downloads/service-account-file.json"

Example: Windows

For PowerShell:

$env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="KEY_PATH"

Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

For example:

$env:GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="C:\Users\username\Downloads\service-account-file.json"

For command prompt:

set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=KEY_PATH

Replace KEY_PATH with the path of the JSON file that contains your credentials.

Enable the Cloud Healthcare API.
Enable the API

Install the Google Cloud CLI.
To initialize the gcloud CLI, run the following command:
```
gcloud init
```

Set up permissions

To use the features in this guide, you must have the healthcare.nlpservice.analyzeEntities permission, which is included in the healthcare.nlpServiceViewer role.

To assign this role, run the gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding command:

gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding PROJECT_ID \
    --member serviceAccount:SERVICE_ACCOUNT_ID \
    --role roles/healthcare.nlpServiceViewer

Extract entities, relations, and contextual attributes

The Healthcare Natural Language API uses context-aware models to extract medical entities, relations, and contextual attributes. Each text entity is extracted into a medical dictionary entry. To extract this level of medical insights from medical text, use the projects.locations.services.nlp.analyzeEntities method.

To include the SNOMED CT licensed vocabulary in your entity mentions, see Include licensed vocabularies.

To extract medical insights from medical text using the Healthcare Natural Language API, make a POST request and specify the target text in the documentContent field. The maximum size of the medical text is 20,000 Unicode characters.

The following samples show how to use the analyzeEntities method to extract medical insights from the medical text "Insulin regimen 5 units IV will be administered for diabetes.".

Extract output as a FHIR R4 bundle

You can extract entities from text and map them to FHIR R4 resources and elements. The resulting FHIR R4 bundle includes all entities, entity mentions, and relationships in JSON format. For example, the Healthcare Natural Language API maps the base entity PROBLEM to the Condition FHIR R4 resource and the entity PROBLEM.ANATOMICAL_STRUCTURE to the Condition.bodySite FHIR element. For a list of other mappings, see Healthcare Natural Language API output as a FHIR bundle.

The following samples show how to extract medical insights from the medical text "Insulin regimen 5 units IV will be administered for diabetes." in a FHIR R4 bundle. For more information, see AlternativeOutputFormat object.

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

PROJECT_ID: the ID of your Google Cloud project
LOCATION: the dataset location

Request JSON body:

{
  "documentContent": "Insulin regimen 5 units IV will be administered for diabetes.",
  "alternativeOutputFormat": "FHIR_BUNDLE"
}

To send your request, choose one of these options:

curl

Save the request body in a file named request.json. Run the following command in the terminal to create or overwrite this file in the current directory:

cat > request.json << 'EOF'
{
  "documentContent": "Insulin regimen 5 units IV will be administered for diabetes.",
  "alternativeOutputFormat": "FHIR_BUNDLE"
}
EOF

Then execute the following command to send your REST request:

curl -X POST \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d @request.json \
     "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/services/nlp:analyzeEntities"

PowerShell

Save the request body in a file named request.json. Run the following command in the terminal to create or overwrite this file in the current directory:

@'
{
  "documentContent": "Insulin regimen 5 units IV will be administered for diabetes.",
  "alternativeOutputFormat": "FHIR_BUNDLE"
}
'@  | Out-File -FilePath request.json -Encoding utf8

Then execute the following command to send your REST request:

$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
    -Method POST `
    -Headers $headers `
    -ContentType: "application/json" `
    -InFile request.json `
    -Uri "https://healthcare.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION/services/nlp:analyzeEntities" | Select-Object -Expand Content

If the request is successful, the response contains a JSON object with the following entries:

The recognized entity mentions with the entities and their relationships in a format similar to the output in Extract entities, relations, and contextual attributes.
A fhirBundle key containing a string-formatted FHIR Bundle resource. The FHIR bundle includes all the entities, the entity mentions, and the relationships in JSON format.
