Logical Model: Radiology Report - Detailed Descriptions

Draft as of 2026-11-01

Definitions for the RadiologyReport logical model

0. RadiologyReport
Definition

Proof of concept - not an authoritative source.

The data items of a radiology report shared between RIS, PACS and reporting networks, based on the Royal College of Radiologists' Radiology reporting networks: understanding the technical options (March 2022), as mapped in an earlier NHS England draft radiology IG for the National Imaging Registry. The items have not been checked against the RCR text, and cardinalities are this guide's assumption (To confirm).

Indicative HL7 v2 (ORU^R01), DICOM and FHIR mappings are shown on the Mappings tab, including the HL7 v2.5.1 to FHIR conversion of Send Imaging Result [RAD-128]. The FHIR representation is Radiology Diagnostic Report, with the request in Radiology Service Request and the study in Radiology Imaging Study.
