The laterality element is part of BodyLocation, a flexible structure that allows the location to be determined by a single code, or a code plus laterality and/or orientation. The body location can also be specified in relation to one or more body landmarks. SNOMED CT is used in all cases. * Code only: The code should include (precoordinate) laterality and/orientation to the degree necessary to completely specify the body location. * Code plus laterality and/or orientation: The basic code augmented by codes specifying the body side and/or anatomical orientation. * Relation to landmark: The location relative to a landmark is specified by: 1. Establishing the location and type of landmark using a body site code and optional laterality/orientation, and 2. Specifying the direction and distance from the landmark to the body location. Note that BodyLocation is a data type (a reusable structure), not a stand-alone entity. The concept is similar to how a postal address can apply to a person, location, or organization. This contrasts with FHIR's stand-alone BodySite (aka BodyStructure in r4) which 'is not ... intended for describing the type of anatomical location but rather a specific body site on a specific patient' (FHIR 3.5)." /> <fhirVersion value="4.0.1" /> <mapping> <identity value="rim" /> <uri value="http://hl7.org/v3" /> <name value="RIM Mapping" /> </mapping> <kind value="complex-type" /> <abstract value="false" /> <context> <type value="element" /> <expression value="*" /> </context> <type value="Extension" /> <baseDefinition value="http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Extension" /> <derivation value="constraint" /> <snapshot /> <differential> <element id="Extension"> <path value="Extension" /> <short value="Laterality" /> <definition value="Body side of the body location, if needed to distinguish from a similar location on the other side of the body.
