minimal Common Oncology Data Elements (mCODE) Implementation Guide
2.1.0 - STU 2.1 United States of America flag

This page is part of the HL7 FHIR Implementation Guide: minimal Common Oncology Data Elements (mCODE) Release 1 - US Realm | STU1 (v2.1.0: STU 2) based on FHIR R4. This is the current published version in its permanent home (it will always be available at this URL). For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: Tumor Specimen Profile

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/mcode/StructureDefinition/mcode-tumor-specimen Version: 2.1.0
Active as of 2023-03-21 Computable Name: TumorSpecimen

Represents a tumor after it has been removed from the body. If there is a Tumor resource representing the tumor before it was removed from the body, use identifier to associate this TumorSpecimen with that Tumor resource.

Usage

Used to represent a tumor or portion of a tumor that has been removed from the body.

To associate this with a specific BodyStructure conforming to the Tumor profile, add an identifier with a value that matches a persistent identifier from BodyStructure.identifier.value that is unique in the context of the Patient.

Conformance

Observation resources associated with an in-scope patient with an Specimen.type of TUMOR (from http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0487) MUST conform to this profile. Beyond this requirement, a producer of resources SHOULD ensure that any resource instance associated with an in-scope patient that would reasonably be expected to conform to this profile SHOULD be published in this form.

Usage:
