Proposed Title | Imaging Anatomic Region of Interest (alternative: Imaging Anatomic Area of Interest) |
Proposed Description | The Imaging Anatomic Region of Interest value set contains values that may be used to represent the anatomic region of interest for an imaging procedure or The Imaging Anatomic Region of Interest value set contains values that may be used to represent the anatomic area of interest for a diagnostic imaging procedure. |
Proposed URL | https://healthterminologies.gov.au/fhir/ValueSet/imaging-anatomic-region-of-interest-1 |
ValueSet Requirement: To describe the general area or region where a diagnostic image is taken, to enable categorisation by common area/region. This value set will contain the equivalent SNOMED CT concepts representing the NCTIS Anatomical Region values suggested by DoH, after consultation with the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists, that are currently in use. The suggested values are not indicative of all defined body regions and represents only the common regions identified for categorisation of diagnostic imaging.

I agree with set of concepts chosen, including the decision to request a new concept for whole body. In the concept maps I am happy to go forwards with equivalent for all concepts but am also happy to take the advice that cardiac and heart structure have a narrower/wider equivalence.
At this time I think we are looking at proposing a 'slice' for categorising imaging intensive diagnostic investigations that may include Observation.category, Composition.category, DiagnosticReport.category.
Feedback from Liam Barnes (Terminologist, Clinical Terminology and Tooling) regarding the proposed ValueSet:
My suggested set is as follows:
69536005 |Head structure| 45048000 |Neck structure| 816094009 |Structure of thoracic cross-sectional segment of trunk| 80891009 |Heart structure| 76752008 |Breast structure| 818982008 |Abdominopelvic cross-sectional segment| 816092008 |Structure of pelvic cross-sectional segment of trunk| 53120007 |Upper limb structure| 61685007 |Lower limb structure| 122494005 |Structure of cervical vertebral column| 122495006 |Structure of thoracic vertebral column| 122496007 |Structure of lumbar vertebral column| 38266002 |Entire body as a whole|
The NCTIS Anatomical Region Values concept, 6 - Abdomen, is ambiguous, however, given the NCTIS set is very similar to the region set used by RadLex/LOINC and they are based on the Foundational Model of Anatomy, I've assumed this definition as the intended original meaning. An article describing the important distinction between imaging regions and strict anatomist region definitions: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/joa.13384
I've suggested 38266002 |Entire body as a whole| for the NCTIS Anatomical Region Values concept, 13 - Whole Body. The concept of the "entire body" is supported by RadLex/LOINC and SNOMED CT in imaging procedure modelling and has been adopted in DICOM. It also aligns with the notion of "whole". I recognise that this concept does not subsume more specific body regions and parts. If a different concept to the original is desired that includes the entire body or its parts, then I would suggest, 91723000 |Anatomical structure|, which would subsume all other regions.
Feedback addressed as follows:
I have reviewed the amended proposal and reasoning and am happy to proceed with using 38266002 |Entire body as a whole| on the understanding that this code is an imprecise code that may include for example 95% of the body but is not to be understood to always mean 100% of the body.
DICOM - Common Anatomic Regions
DICOM set is extensive and includes concepts addressing specific components of a region. For example, in addition to 'Lower limb', it includes 'Lower leg', 'Muscle of lower limb' and 'Bone of lower limb'. Some of these components of general regions may be considered as specific body structures that would be represented by the Primary Anatomic Structure being imaged. It also includes combined body regions, for example, 'Neck and Chest', 'Neck, Chest and Abdomen', 'Neck Chest, Abdomen and Pelvis'. Given the anatomical region is to be used in conjunction with a specific body site location being imaged, the level of detail included is generally unnecessary, however the combined sites may be of use.
A ConceptMap between DICOM and the proposed ValueSet would be of value given DICOM is the international standard for the transmission of imaging information.
LOINC - Region Imaged LOINC set closely resembles the set proposed by RANZCR (with DoH) in the regions and level of granularity. A concept map between this LOINC set and the proposed ValueSet would be of value given LOINC is widely implemented in Australia.
RadLex - BODY_REGION
While the RadLex set shares some similarities with the set proposed by RANZCR (with DoH), there are some components within a region that are addressed specifically. For example, in addition to 'Head', there are concepts to represent 'Face' and 'Skull', and in addition to 'Spine', there are concepts for 'Cervical spine', 'Lumbar spine', 'Lumbosacral spine', 'Thoracic Spine' and Thoracolumbar spine'. One combined region is also included, 'Skull base to mid-thigh'.
As RadLex is implemented to a lesser extent, a concept map may be considered between this RadLex set and the proposed ValueSet if stakeholder feedback deems it necessary.
I have reviewed the above design and the recommended change to use 38266002 |Entire body as a whole| as similar concepts are used in NCTS, DICOM and LOINC.
I agree with the proposed concept maps to NCTS, DICOM and LOINC and agree that there is uncertain adoption of RadLex that a concept map can be left at this stage until community feedback suggests that a concept map to RadLex would be useful.
I think NCTIS and SNOMED CT ConceptMaps are a high priority to be published and go into use. The DICOM and LOINC ConceptMaps to the SNOMED CT set are of value - they are a lower priority than the NCTIS. The definition and use of these maps is interesting. I agree that RadLex can be left to community request and be out of scope of this issue.
Please move forward with designing the ConceptMaps (and necessary pre-requisite terminology resources) for DICOM and SNOMED CT. And for LOINC and SNOMED CT. Ideally we could leverage existing value sets for LOINC and DICOM.
The NCTIS and SNOMED CT maps are to be used in defining the difference in definition of these concepts in the information model between current implementation (NCTIS) and the intended future state (SNOMED CT).
The current supported implementation in the MHR is defined as NCTIS though potentially at a lower level of conformance other terminology may still be supplied e.g. systems may be sending DICOM or LOINC. Given this, is there any value in defining the relationships between DICOM, LOINC, and NCTIS?

@davidmckillop - what is the hold up on these? What is needed to progress into FTRs?
@dtr-agency The FTR (FTR-1223) to create a "ValueSet - Imaging Anatomic Region of Interest" has been done with the valueset available at https://healthterminologies.gov.au/fhir/ValueSet/imaging-anatomic-region-of-interest-1.
The conceptMaps to/from the existing NCTS valueset and the new valueset for FHIR R4 have been done and are available at: https://healthterminologies.gov.au/fhir/ConceptMap/nctis-anatomic-region-to-imag-anatomic-region-of-interest-1; and https://healthterminologies.gov.au/fhir/ConceptMap/imag-anatomic-region-of-interest-to-nctis-anatomic-region-1. The conceptMaps to/from the existing NCTS valueset and the new valueset for FHIR R5 have been designed and are in the status of "TO DO" with the Agency terminology team. Although the conceptMaps for LOINC and RadLex have been proposed it was decided to await community request/interest in these conceptMaps before creating them.
Hence, the only outstanding items for this ticket are the "TO DO" R5 conceptMaps ( FTR-1238 & FTR-1239).
Prerequisites
The issue
Change description
Grouping of sites based on anatomical region is a consistent means of finding, classifying or discovering the results of imaging intensive diagnostic investigations, and therefore it is valuable to categorise a diagnostic report based on anatomical region.
A ValueSet is required to support anatomical region imaged to enable categorisation. SNOMED CT concepts should be utilised moving forward as it is the Agency's preferred national clinical terminology. Additionally, SNOMED CT is the preferred national solution for clinical terminology endorsed by the Australian Health Ministers' Advisory Council (AHMAC). In recent workshops with RANZCR, SNOMED CT was identified as the preferred terminology to support diagnostic imaging.
The ValueSet must be consistent with the following list of anatomical regions produced as a result of consultation by Australian Government Department of Health with RANZCR in 2014, which formed the basis of the Information Requirements for eHealth Diagnostic Imaging Report:
What it actually enables people to do
Categorisation based on anatomical region enables a consistent method of finding or aggregating imaging intensive diagnostic reports. It may be utilised for indexing, reporting, searching or discovering diagnostic reports that are focused on a particular anatomical region, and therefore contains imaging based on relevant anatomical sites or locations. For example, a potential use case may involve a clinician being notified of reports detailing prior similar or proximate imaging that is relevant for clinical decision making. It may prevent duplicate or unnecessary imaging, and assist in discoverability of reports that aid patient management.
How awesome would it be?
Anatomical region is a widely adopted means of categorisation supported by the Agency, which the Australian Government Department of Health and Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Radiologists both continue to endorse. Categorisation based on anatomical region is also supported by the RANZCR's Clinical Radiology Written Report Guidelines, which states "relevant imaging findings should be characterised as specifically as possible including a description of; precise anatomical location using accepted anatomical terminology and modality; size or extent; other anatomical imaging characteristics relevant to diagnosis or treatment."
The potential benefits of categorisation based on anatomical region include reporting capability, and indexing to assist clinicians in finding relevant or related reports, and therefore assisting in reducing unnecessary repeat imaging. Categorisation by anatomical region would provide a means of searching and discovering imaging intensive diagnostic reports.
Workarounds
The NCTIS Anatomical Region ValueSet is currently published on the NCTS, and may be used until a SNOMED CT set is produced.
Additional context
The NCTIS Anatomical Region ValueSet is published on the National Clinical Terminology Service (NCTS) and is implemented in My Health Record system for eHealth Diagnostic Imaging Report CDA R2 documents. The ValueSet is also used to describe Anatomical Region in Imaging Examination Result DCM and Diagnostic Imaging SCS and CDA implementation guide. The use of SNOMED CT concepts to describe anatomical regions is preferred but was unable was unable to be developed at the time of implementation, hence the NCTIS set was produced as a workaround in order to deliver the product within the required timeframe.
Consideration for ValueSet to be bound to DiagnosticReport.Category (a slice of category to indicate categorisation based on anatomy, where binding strength may be preferred but cardinality optional). ValueSet could potentially be used in ImagingStudy or an imaging Observation, noting Observation.bodySite and ImagingStudy.bodySite currently enables indication of the observed body structure.
Comparable existing terminology
DICOM set ‘Common Anatomic Regions’ which utilises SNOMED CT body structure concepts (http://dicom.nema.org/medical/dicom/current/output/chtml/part16/sect_CID_4031.html). This set is used in the DICOM ‘Anatomic Region Sequence Attribute’ which identifies the general anatomic region imaged by the protocol (Attribute definition: Sequence that identifies the anatomic region of interest in this instance (ie external anatomy, surface anatomy, or general region of the body)). This is used in correlation with ‘Primary Anatomic Structure Sequence’ which identifies the specific organ or structure that is the focus of the procedure described by the protocol. For example, a protocol might identify the Primary Anatomic Structure as "liver" and the Anatomic Region as "abdomen". DICOM specifies that ‘structure’ rather than ‘entire’ SNOMED CT concepts are to be used as they are more inclusive and do not imply the imaging of the entire structure recorded. An exception to this rule is the use of |Entire body as a whole|, as this is explicitly referring to the entire body. DICOM also notes that the contents of the element Anatomic Region Sequence (0008,2218) is not necessarily a precise description of the full extent of the scan or the reconstructed slices. For example, where "Chest" is recorded it may refer to a scan that spans only part of the chest, the whole chest, or includes parts of regions beyond the chest.
LOINC 'Anatomic Location' attribute specifies the body part or body region that is imaged, and includes the sub-attributes 'Region Imaged' and 'Imaging Focus' (https://loinc.org/kb/users-guide/loinc-rsna-radiology-playbook-user-guide/#anatomic-location). 'Region Imaged' is used in two ways - as a general descriptor for the area imaged and as a grouper for finding related imaging exams, or it is just used as a grouper. It is constrained to the following set: Head, Neck, Chest, Breast, Abdomen, Pelvis, Extremity, Upper extremity, Lower extremity, Whole body, Unspecified. Where multiple regions are imaged without an imaging focus, such as CT of head and neck, two regions may be combined with a '+', eg Head+Neck.
RadLex attribute BODY_REGION (broad area of the body imaged; https://pubs.rsna.org/doi/pdf/10.1148/rg.2017160188) is described by the following values: Abdomen, Body, Bone, Breast, Cervical spine, Chest, Extremities, Extremity, Face, Head, Lower extremity, Lumbar spine, Lumbosacral spine, Neck, Pelvis, Skull, Skull base to mid-thigh, Spine, Thoracic Spine, Thoracolumbar spine, Upper extremity, Wholebody. It is used in combination with ANATOMIC_FOCUS, which indicates the specific site of interest, such as a particular organ or joint. Multiple regions can be specified by BODY_REGION, BODY_REGION_2 etc.
