Summary

Defining URL:http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/dicom-cid29
Name:Acquisition Modality Codes
Definition:

This Value Set includes codes that may be used to identify an image or waveform acquisition modality, as used in the ImagingStudy resource, Dicom Attribute Modality (0008,0060) or HL7 v2 Table 0259 (see HL7 v2.6 Chapter 8 Section 8.8.8.47). It generally corresponds to a class of diagnostic equipment, or to a specific acquisition function or technique in a device.

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

LvlA few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organise codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information
SourceThe source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
CodeThe code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract')
DisplayThe 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
