Breast Radiology Reporting - 1st for comment ballot

This page is part of the Breast Radiology Report (v0.1.0: Comment Draft) based on FHIR R4. . For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Primary code systems used in this Implementation Guide

The code systems listed below include:

  1. code systems used in the definition of value sets in this IG; and
  2. code systems for individual codes used directly in the logical models and profiles.

This list is not inclusive of code systems associated with external value sets used in the IG.

Name Definition
AbnormalityDensityCS

Visually estimated content of fibroglandular-density tissue within the breast

AbnormalityTypeCS

Abnormality Type value

AsymmetryTypesCS

Currently many studies utilize cortical thickening and hilum absence as criteria for definition of the risk for metastasis(11,12-16). … Metastatic deposits accumulate in the lymph node peripheral area, causing enlargement of the cortex, usually focal (at early stages), or uniform.

BreastDepthCS

Breast Depth

BreastDirectionCS

The relative direction of an object described using the analogy of a 12-hour clock to describe angles and directions. One imagines a clock face lying either upright or flat in front of oneself, and identifies the twelve hour markings with the directions in which they point.

MarginCS

When breast cancer is surgically removed (during a surgical biopsy, lumpectomy or mastectomy), a rim of normal tissue surrounding the tumor is also removed. This rim is called a margin. Margins help show whether or not all of the tumor was removed.
