RIS-PACS Descriptors and Coding Dr Keith Foord Consultant Radiologist, East Sussex Hospitals A national system of RIS coding and descriptors ? Why? Must be as intuitive and easy to use as possible Should have national acceptance Relates to needs of request/entry systems within NCRS – preRIS - SNOMED match to record request to Spine Consistency and uniqueness in requesting terminology – preRIS and within RIS Consistency in activity measurement - RIS Consistency in clinical coding of events – RIS - SNOMED match For accurate communication of results data between hospitals – post RIS results reporting, cluster stores and national spine SNOMED match to ‘performed examination code’ to Spine For ‘Payment by results’ – accurate records of same patient activity – national tariffs - SNOMED match / accurate HRGs DICOM Structured Reporting NHS Costings Code Book Descriptors Descriptors need to be UNIQUE in NCRS FOOT LEFT not unique When a user searches all of the examinations available for ‘Foot Left’ the search may return: FOOT LEFT, FOOT LEFT Swab, FOOT LEFT Physiotherapy, FOOT LEFT Dressing, etc., etc. But XR FOOT LEFT is unique Radiology Short Codes Used in RIS as shortcuts For bookings For internal communications within Radiology To help group procedures For internal management / audit / activity For common use need a structure, ideally short (max. 6 letters/digits) and logical Radiological Short Codes 1 2 3 4 5 6 Modality X – X-ray F – Fluoro I – Interventional/ Fluoro C – CT M – MRI U – U’sound N – Radionuclide Imaging P – PET E- Endoscopy Z- Image analysis or review Three or four letter body part / function code 4th letter reserved for R, L, B or W if procedure R or L lateralisable, Both or Whole body, otherwise can be used for any letter or number Postqualifier (Extra or subdescriptor) Format for a midline or non lateralising structure, no post qualifier ABCDE Format for a lateralisable or whole body structure, no post qualifier ABCDF Format for a midline or non lateralising structure, with a post qualifier ABCDEG Format for a lateralisable or whole body structure, with a post qualifier ABCDF G Extra qualifiers (6th letter/number = G) A B D E I J M O P R S T X 1 2 3 4 Ablation Biopsy (Core or FNA) Drainage or Aspiration of fluid Embolisation Insertion of device inJection - as an objective of the procedure, not as part of the preliminary to this objective Mobile - for any modality, but particularly for 'portable' plain films and use of mobile image intensifiers tOmography in its wider sense. O may be added to any plain film examination to define planar tomography - or postcoordinated Plasty - as in angioPlasty or dacrocystoPlasty - ie balloon dilatation for Radiotherapy planning Stent Use of intraThecal contrast eXtraction - eg in retrieval of intravascular foreign bodies or removal of temporary IVC filter First part of study Second part of study Third part of study Fourth visit etc. – 5,6,7,8,9 – 10th = 0 Eg CT guided PELVic Biopsy CPEL VB Eg Interventional (Fluoroscopic) Right SFA Angioplasty I ASF RP Pre and Post Co-ordination (1) In order to group procedures many old RIS systems lack the ability to post co-ordinate procedures together under one accession number. Particular examples are for 'both' plain film exams eg 'both ankles' and in CT where examinations often combine e.g. CT Chest, Abdomen, Pelvis. Pre co-ordination or grouping of these procedures is therefore required in advance. Pre co-ordination should not be used in RIS-PACS systems capable of full post co-ordination as within these individual procedure codes will be automatically or manually grouped prior to archiving and reporting Eg CT guided PELVic Biopsy CPEL VB This is pre-coordinated with the whole process described in the code Pre and Post Co-ordination (2) In modern RIS systems post co-ordination can be applied to group related procedures together. All RIS systems supplied via LSPs should do this. Some procedure codes such as 'U/S biopsy' by themselves do not define precisely what has happened although it would define the activity of “Performing a biopsy under ultrasound control and the consumables/activity associated with this.” Such codes need post co-ordinating with the relevant body part to fully inform activity statistics Similarly separate CT body part examinations can be post co-ordinated together to enable the multiple examinations to be reported together as one report. The advantage is a more sophisticated approach to audit, activity measurement and stocktaking Eg CT guided PELVis Biopsy CPEL VB CPEL V PLUS CB I OP B Are POST coordinated and describe both processes which are then reported as one. CT biopsy cost structures do not need to be built into multiple codes Eg PET/CT for Chest CCHES PLUS P GE NW Are POST coordinated and describe both processes which are then reported as one.

SNOMED CT codes will be applied to the patients record through manual selection by users, as well as an integrated bi-product of clinical processes (i.e. orders, assessments). SNOMED CT clinical coding is supported for inpatient and outpatient encounters. SNOMED CT At the end of an episode / encounter of care, SNOMED CT codes are recorded in NCRS via the Discharge Summary / Encounter diagnosis and procedure codes. The SNOMED codes recorded in NCRS are sent to the 3M clinical encoder where clinical coding is completed in SNOMED CT, ICD10, Read, and OPCS4. Codes will be transferred back to NCRS and will update, not replace, the patient diagnosis and procedure codes. A full audit trail is available. SNOMED CT Within NCRS P1R2, users will have the ability to manually record SNOMED CT codes within the following areas: § Discharge Summary / Encounter § Problems / Provisional Diagnoses Within NCRS P1R2, SNOMED CT codes will be recorded against the patients record, as a by-product of clinical processes, in the following clinical areas: § Assessments § Findings / Flowsheets § § Orders (viz. the code for the request) Results (viz. the code for the procedure(s) performed, not the radiological diagnosis or report which will be transferred via HL7 messaging) Orders and Results in Radiology SNOMED CT Order codes can be derived from Order/Entry systems, but will be MUCH MORE ACCURATE if derived from the accepted and if required modified final RIS procedure entry with SNOMED CT matching. SNOMED CT Results codes from Radiology are a dilemma. This does not apply to ‘Procedure performed’ , but to a provisional radiological diagnosis which may be a list of differential diagnoses which could be entered by a reporter (ie manually). Unlikely to happen given pressures of work! The use of DICOM structured reporting may give the possibility of automatically constructing radiological diagnosis codes from the structured report Structured reporting DICOM SR – is an ‘envelope’, but within this useful structure is available. User decides how much structure to use and controls with templates the type of content, if it is mandatory or optional and modes of expression Incorporated into the report are captured images of key findings (which can be exploded to full screen presentation), structured diagnosis information, recorded audio, the ability to sort findings by anatomy or priority, to view prior findings associated with the corresponding patient and hyperlinks to related information.
