History/Usage

first released
last updated2.61
last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonThe scale has been changed from "Nar" to "Doc" to fit with the CDA model. Changed to align with the HL7 routes of administration. Changed System from "Lung" for conformance with the LOINC/Radlex unified model.; Method of "Radnuc" was changed to "NM". The LOINC/RadLex Committee agreed to use a subset of the two-letter DICOM modality codes as the primary modality identifier.; Removed "single breath" from the Challenge because as of 2011, the ACR and SNM do not recommend specifying "single breath" as a distinct study, which is reflected by the current CPT codes for lung perfusion and ventilation. Changed & to + in Component to match syntax used in LOINC/RadLex unified model.
