Background

The codes and qualifiers for Radiotherapy Treatment Locations correspond to body structures defined in AAPM Task Group 263 Final Report, but are drawn from SNOMED CT (SCT).

Usage

To prevent a combinatorial explosion of codes, and to describe each treatment location uniquely, these qualifiers are used in conjunction with codes taken from the Radiotherapy Treatment Location Value Set, to specify a body location. For example, to specify the lower lobe of right lung, the code for lobe of lung structure (SCT#31094006) would be qualified with the codes lower (SCT#261122009) and right (SCT#24028007).

The content of this value set and the associated Radiotherapy Treatment Location Value Set supports expression of all of the anatomical concepts in the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) Task Group 263 report on Standardizing Nomenclatures in Radiation Oncology. The mapping from AAPM TG263 concepts to SNOMED CT codes and qualifiers can be found in this spreadsheet, as well as in this concept map.

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
System 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
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
