This page summarizes the terminology (ValueSets and CodeSystems) used in the Lithuanian Laboratory IG. For full definitions and bindings, see Artifacts.
Why this matters: Consistent codes and units enable interoperable exchange between laboratory systems, EHRs, and national registries. Standardised bindings support correct data capture, automated validation, and reliable use in clinical decision support.
