Kidney - left Volume by derived by automated ultrasound testing (US)   15317-1

LOINC Code


LOINC code15317-1
nameKidney - left Volume by derived by automated ultrasound testing (US)
descriptionThis method estimates volume by automatically performing simulated planimetry. The estimation is based on the convex outlines of two orthogonal sections, transverse and longitudinal. Units in cm3.

propertyVol  =  Volume
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemKidney.left
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
