Cancer Pathology Report Structure

Observation Profile Structure

The US Pathology Observation profile is based on the IHE SDC/eCP on FHIR Observation Profile, which maps CAP protocol's structured elements into FHIR Observations. The profile defines two main categories:

Sections: Represent major divisions within the protocol (e.g., "SPECIMEN," "TUMOR") that organize related content. Sections do not have values but contain references to Questions through hasMember relationships.
Questions: Individual data elements which store captured responses. Questions reference their parent Section through derivedFrom relationships and contain value elements.
