EHDSBodyStructure to FHIR BodyStructure Mapping

EHDSBodyStructure → BodyStructureEuCore

Note: The content of this page is work in progress and may change based on ongoing discussions within the working group.

The technical solutions listed are possible candidates under consideration and are not yet approved or ready for implementation.

EHDSBodyStructure → BodyStructureEuCore

This page explains how conceptual elements from the EHDS logical model are expressed in the corresponding FHIR BodyStructureEuCore profile used by this Implementation Guide.
