Defining URL: | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/codex-radiation-therapy/ValueSet/radiotherapy-energy-units |
Version: | 1.0.0-ballot |
Name: | RadiotherapyEnergyUnits |
Title: | Unit to characterize Energy in Radiotherapy |
Status: | Draft as of 2022-08-08 02:42:13+0000 |
Definition: | Unit to characterize the Energy spectrum used in Radiotherapy. For electrons, the maximum energy is given in MeV. For photons, the maximum acceleration voltage is given in MV or kV, although those are not units of energy. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
