Detect PHI/PII spans in clinical text with OpenMed's extract_pii without altering the text. Use when the user wants to find names, dates, MRNs, phone numbers, addresses, SSNs, or other identifiers and get their offsets and labels (not redact them), inspect what would be removed before de-identifying, route spans to a custom redactor, normalize labels to a canonical taxonomy, or filter by confidence and language. Covers extract_pii, the PIIEntity fields, CANONICAL_LABELS / normalize_label, and…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Extracting PII Entities `openmed.extract_pii` finds PHI/PII spans and **returns them without changing the text**. Use it when you need to *see* the identifiers — to audit, route to a custom redactor, or decide a policy — rather than produce redacted output. It runs on-device. ## When to use - You want the **spans and labels** of identifiers, with the original text intact. - You need a **preview** of what `deidentify` would act on before committing. - You are feeding detected spans into a **downstream redactor** (your own, Presidio, or `deidentify`). - You want to **normalize** model labels to a stable canonical taxonomy. If you instead want redacted/masked output directly, use `deidentifying-clinical-text` (`openmed.deidentify`). If you need reversible masking, see `reidentifying-text`. ## extract_pii vs deidentify | | `extract_pii` | `deidentify` | | --- | --- | --- | | Changes the text? | **No** | Yes (mask/remove/replace/hash/shift) | | Returns | `PredictionResult` (spans) | `DeidentificationResult` (redacted text) | | Default threshold | `0.5` | `0.7` (safety-biased) | | Use for | detection, audit, routing | producing safe output | ## Install ```bash …

How to install
mdr add maziyarpanahi/openmed/extracting-pii-entities@sha256:a96084543874b904The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
