Preferred Label : Defined Observation Result Target Anatomic Site Code;
NCIt related terms : DefinedObservationResult.targetAnatomicSiteCode;
NCIt definition : A coded value specifying the anatomic location that is the focus of an observation
result.;
Alternative definition : BRIDG 3.0.3: A coded value specifying the anatomic location that is the focus of an
observation result. EXAMPLE(S): Arm for skin rash. NOTE(S): The target site of the
observation result may be different than the target site of the observation that generated
it. For instance, the target site of the observation may be broad (e.g. skin) while
the target site of the observation result is specific (e.g. skin on chest).; BRIDG 5.3: A coded value specifying the anatomic location that is the focus of an
observation result. EXAMPLE(S): Arm for skin rash. OTHER NAME(S): NOTE(S): The target
site of the observation result may be different than the target site of the observation
that generated it. For instance, the target site of the observation may be broad (e.g.
skin) while the target site of the observation result is specific (e.g. skin on chest).
Sources that capture anatomic site and laterality separately should map both to this
attribute. For implementation models based on BRIDG where site and laterality are
captured separately, you may wish to capture both concepts as a post-coordinated code
structure or as multiple code repetitions.;
