CP-2460 Add more CID 4031 Common Anatomic Region concepts Status Final Text Date of Last Update 2025/07/09 Person Assigned David Clunie Submitter Name David Clunie Submission Date 2024/11/01 Correction Number CP-2460 Log Summary: Add more CID 4031 Common Anatomic Region concepts Name of Standard PS3.16 2025b Rationale for Correction: Some imaging sharing schemes have suggested using coarse categories of anatomic region for classification in metadata; those that are not already present in DICOM should be included in the list of common anatomic regions. See, for example http://​www.ihe-europe.net/​sites/​default/​files/​2024-05/2-​MCWG-​Recommendations-​Imaging%20​Sharing%20​Metadata-​Linkages-​Final​Published-​V7​.pdf, which has drawn one line in the sand. See also the old discussion at http://dclunie.blogspot.com/2013/08/lumpers-vs-splitters-anatomy-and.html. The intent of this CP is to include the necessary concepts so that they can be used, not to create a new Context Group that purports to solve the problem of creating a "short list" for any particular sharing scenario. For those situations in which string values in BodyPartExamined are used, corresponding terms are added to PS3.16 Annex L. PS3.16 already uses 421060004 for "spine", but the MCWG suggests the parent code that means vertebral column and/or spinal cord 737561001, so that latter is added with a more expressive meaning "Spine and/or cord". [Ed.Note: CRS#967999 to add 63337009, 67734004, 737561001 to DICOM subset.] Correction Wording: <informaltable rules="all" frame="box"> <tr> <td> <para><emphasis role="italic">Amend DICOM PS3.16 as follows (changes to existing text are bold and <emphasis role="bold"><emphasis role="underline" >underlined</emphasis></emphasis> for additions and <emphasis role="bold" ><emphasis role="strikethrough">struckthrough</emphasis></emphasis> for removals):</emphasis></para> </td> </tr> </informaltable> <section label="CID 4031" status="3" xml:id="sect_CID_4031"> <title>Common Anatomic Region Version: 2022122420250709
