Add PathLex as Coding Scheme Status Assigned Date of Last Update 2017/12/22 Person Assigned David Clunie Submitter Name David Clunie Submission Date 2017/09/03 Correction Number CP-1772 Log Summary: Add PathLex as Coding Scheme Name of Standard PS3.16 Rationale for Correction: The PathLex Anatomical Pathology ontology was previously maintained by the IHE Anatomical Pathology Domain, is used in the Anatomic Pathology Structured Report (APSR), is available in the Bioportal. See Daniel C, Macary F, García Rojo M, Klossa J, Laurinavičius A, Beckwith BA, et al. Recent advances in standards for collaborative Digital Anatomic Pathology. Diagn Pathol. 2011 Mar 30;6(Suppl 1):S17. PathLex contains concepts relevant to imaging that are not encoded in other schemes, though there is considerable overlap with SNOMED CT, ICD-O. See also Haroske G, Schrader T. A reference model based interface terminology for generic observations in Anatomic Pathology Structured Reports. Diagn Pathol. 2014 Dec 19;9(Suppl 1):S4. Add a standard value for use as the Coding Scheme Designator. Correction Wording:

Amend DICOM PS3.16 Table 8-1 as follows:
