Add optional fields to denote radiation boost #375

Open hknahal opened 1 year ago

hknahal commented 1 year ago

Implementation:

Based on discussions with MOHCCN Clinical Commitee and ARGO CMD Working Group, the following two new optional fields will be added to the Radiation schema:

Field Name Description Data Tier Attributes Type Permissible Values
“radiation_boost” A radiation boost is an extra radiation treatment targeted at the tumor bed, given after the regular sessions of radiation is complete (Reference NCIt: C137812). Indicate if this radiation treatment was a radiation boost. Extended TEXT Yes, No
“reference_radiation_treatment_id” If a radiation boost was given, indicate the 'submitter_treatment_id' of the primary radiation treatment the radiation boost treatment is linked to. Extended Required/Conditional Only required if 'radiation_boost' = 'Yes' TEXT

Rationale: Some cancers (eg. breast cancer) require a supplemental dose of radiation. This provides a way to denote this in the clinical submission.

Can't be added to Dictionary 1.16 due to a clinical dependency

Almost complete

Dependency on clinical expectations, QA changes to be tested. To be part of Dictionary 1.18

Once the clinical cross file validation is ready, will deploy this too.
