Diagnostic Report

A diagnostic report is the set of information that is typically provided by a diagnostic service when investigations are complete. The information includes a mix of atomic results, text reports, images, and codes. Reference Table: The diagnostic_report_references table contains normalized references from the diagnostic report to other entities. It supports the following reference properties:

subject (required): links to the patient who is the subject of the diagnostic report
encounter: links to the encounter where the diagnostic report was generated
performer: links to practitioners who performed the diagnostic procedure
result: links to observations or other diagnostic results referenced in the report

For detailed information about reference table structure and indexing, see the Reference Tables documentation. Presented Forms: For information about the diagnostic_report_presented_forms table that contains the actual content of diagnostic reports (text, images, and other media), see the Diagnostic Report Presented Forms documentation.
