Hi Alaa,

The -shortest- answer is that you'll need to run the dictionary creation tool.  
There are instructions in older devlist threads.  By default the dictionary 
creation tool does add icd9 and icd10 tables to the dictionary.  The problem is 
that in Umls 2011AB those codes weren't very well populated.  The 2015AB icd# 
set is much more rich so those tables should be pretty good.  Then in ctakes 
you would look up annotations by icd9 or icd10 codes instead of by cui:
OntologyConceptUtil.getAnnotationsByCode( jcas, lookupWindow, icd#Code );
OntologyConceptUtil.getAnnotationsByCode( jcas, icd#Code );

Hi Alaa,
You need to create a resource off the terminology/ontology you want to use (in 
this case ICD9 or ICD10). Then run that resource with cTAKES for the fast 
dictionary lookup. There is cTAKES code and some documentation on how to create 
that resource. By default, cTAKES runs with a resource created from the English 
version of SNOMED CT and RxNORM.
Hope this helps.
