Expansion based on Genomic Study Type v5.0.0 (CodeSystem)
| Code | System | Display | Definition | 
| alt-splc | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Alternative splicing detection | Identification of multiple different processed mRNA transcripts from the same DNA template  | 
| chromatin | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Chromatin conformation | Analysis of the spacial organization of chromatin within a cell  | 
| cnv | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | CNV detection | Detection of a change in the number of copies of a defined region of genomic DNA sequence resulting in structural variation when compared to the reference sequence  | 
| epi-alt-hist | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Epigenetic Alterations - histone modifications | Detection of biochemical modifications covalently bound to the N-terminal tail of a histone protein. These modifications may alter chromatin compaction and gene expression  | 
| epi-alt-dna | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Epigenetic Alterations -DNA methylation | Detection of the presence of an additional methyl group on a DNA nucleobase, which may alter gene transcription  | 
| fam-var-segr | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Familial variant segregation | Determining if a variant identified in an individual is present in other family members  | 
| func-var | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Functional variation detection | Detection of sequence variants which may alter gene expression or gene product function when compared to the reference sequence  | 
| gene-expression | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Gene expression profiling | Measurement and characterization of activity from all gene products  | 
| post-trans-mod | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Post-translational Modification Identification | Detection of biochemical modifications covalently bound to the amino acid monomers of a processed protein  | 
| snp | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | SNP Detection | Determination of which nucleotide is base present at a known variable location of the genomic sequence  | 
| str | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | STR count | Quantification of the number of sequential microsatellite units in a repetitive sequence region  | 
| struc-var | http://hl7.org/fhir/genomicstudy-type | Structural variation detection | Detection of deletions, insertions, or rearrangements of DNA segments compared to the reference sequence  |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information | 
| 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). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') | 
| 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 |
