什么是 Clinical NLP Processing
Clinical NLP is the application of natural language processing to medical documents, EHR notes, radiology reports, discharge summaries, pathology text, to extract structured information (diagnoses, medications, lab results, temporal events) that EHR systems buried as free text. Core tasks:

❓ 常见问题
How is medical NLP different from general NLP?
Domain-specific terminology (1M+ UMLS concepts), negation patterns ("no fever" vs "fever"), acronyms ("HTN" = hypertension), and clinical context dominates. Generic models fail ~40% on clinical text.
Do I need medical degree?
No. Domain knowledge helps; can self-teach via documentation and papers. Pair with MD/nurse consultant early for validation.
What's the job market?
~1.5k open roles (US). Pharma NLP scientists, EHR vendors, health systems, biotech. Most require ML degree + 2 yrs experience. Shortage of talent = 20–30% premium over general NLP.
Privacy/HIPAA concerns?
Yes. De-identification critical before training. Use synthetic data, CLPsych datasets, or partner with hospital IRB. Never train on raw notes.
Can I build a startup in this space?
Yes, prior approvals (FDA if clinical decision support, state licensing if diagnostics), HIPAA compliance, and strong ML are table stakes. Competitor density increasing.
What's the hardest part?
Negation and temporal reasoning. "No allergies" vs "Allergy to penicillin ruled out" are semantically opposite. Contextual representations (BERT) help but still imperfect.
