description	This profile sets minimum expectations for an Observation resource that represents a pathology result associated with a patient in the context of a patient summary in an Australian context. It is based on the [AU Core Pathology Result Observation](https://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/2.0.0/StructureDefinition-au-core-diagnosticresult-path.html) profile, and applies the additional requirements from [Observation Results - Laboratory/Pathology (IPS)](https://hl7.org/fhir/uv/ips/2.0.1/en/StructureDefinition-Observation-results-laboratory-pathology-uv-ips.html).
