Usage

This profile identifies a specific region analyzed for gene mutations or variants in a given genomic test. For example, exome sequencing tests could analyze multiple non-contiguous regions. Each region is designated by a range of start and end location and referencing a coordinate system which is 0-based or 1-based.

RegionStudied is noted at the GenomicsReport level and not directly tied to a given GenomicVariant.

Conformance

Observation resources associated with an in-scope patient with DiagnoticReport.code LOINC 53041-0 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.
