ValueSet
Expansion performed internally based on codesystem Body Structure Relationship Type Codes v6.0.0-snapshot1 (CodeSystem)
This value set contains 4 concepts
| System | Code | Display | Definition |
http://hl7.org/fhir/bodystructure-relationship-type |
predecessor | Predecessor | The referenced BodyStructure is a predecessor from which this included structure originated, such as a lesion that merged into the current lesion. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/bodystructure-relationship-type |
successor | Successor | The referenced BodyStructure is a successor derived from this included structure, such as a lesion created when the current lesion split. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/bodystructure-relationship-type |
includes | Includes | This included structure includes the referenced BodyStructure. |
http://hl7.org/fhir/bodystructure-relationship-type |
part-of | Part Of | This included structure is part of the referenced BodyStructure. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Lvl | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. For value sets, levels are mostly used to organize codes for user convenience, but may follow code system hierarchy - see Code System for further information |
| Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
| Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') |
| Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
| Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
| Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
