Detailed Descriptions
| Extension | |
| Short | An extension to record the category of the sample. |
| Definition | This extension allows the recording of the category of a sample for use within Genomics, whether it is a tumour or germline sample. |

|
| Extension.id | |

| Extension.extension | |
| Short | Additional content defined by implementations |
| Definition | May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. |

| Alias | extensions, user content |
| Comments | There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone. |
