16,101 clinical terms

mri temperaturemri_temp

Patient body temperature measurement recorded at the time of magnetic resonance imaging, captured as part of pre-procedure vital signs assessment. Used in clinical workflows to ensure patient safety and contraindication screening before MRI scan administration.

mri termination datemri_term_dt

Date on which an MRI order, authorization, or imaging episode is closed or expired. Used in radiology information systems and claims data to determine whether imaging was completed within the approved authorization window and to close open imaging requests.

mri timemri_tm

Specific time of day at which a magnetic resonance imaging scan was performed or scheduled. Recorded in radiology information systems and clinical data repositories to support scheduling coordination, technologist workflow tracking, and imaging utilization reporting.

mri timestampmri_ts

Combined date and time value capturing the precise moment a magnetic resonance imaging scan was initiated, completed, or recorded in the system. Used for audit trail purposes, radiology workflow sequencing, and linking imaging results to clinical encounter documentation.

mri titlemri_ttl

Formal descriptive name assigned to a magnetic resonance imaging study, such as MRI Brain with Contrast or MRI Lumbar Spine. Used in radiology orders, reports, and claims to communicate the specific anatomical region and imaging protocol being performed.

mri totalmri_tot

Aggregate numeric value representing the total charge, cost, or reimbursement amount associated with a magnetic resonance imaging service. Used in claims adjudication, radiology billing reconciliation, and healthcare cost analysis reporting across payers and facilities.

mri total countmri_tot_cnt

Cumulative count of magnetic resonance imaging studies performed within a defined population, time period, or clinical category. Used in utilization management reporting, radiology volume analysis, and population health tracking to identify imaging trends and overuse patterns.

mri typemri_typ

Classification indicating the specific category of magnetic resonance imaging performed, such as functional MRI, MRI with contrast, or MRI without contrast. Used in radiology systems and claims coding to determine applicable billing codes, protocols, and prior authorization requirements.

mri updated datemri_upd_dt

Date on which a magnetic resonance imaging record, order, result, or authorization was most recently modified in the clinical or administrative system. Used to track record currency, support audit compliance, and identify amendments made to imaging documentation after initial entry.

mri urgencymri_urg

Clinical priority level assigned to a magnetic resonance imaging order, indicating whether the scan is routine, urgent, or emergent. Used in radiology scheduling systems to triage imaging requests, allocate scanner time appropriately, and ensure timely completion for time-sensitive diagnoses.

mri versionmri_ver

Sequential version number assigned to a magnetic resonance imaging record, report, or order to track revisions and amendments over time. Used in radiology and clinical data systems to maintain a complete audit history and ensure clinicians reference the most current imaging interpretation.

mri zipmri_zip

Postal ZIP code associated with the facility location where a magnetic resonance imaging service was performed. Used in claims data and geographic analysis to identify imaging service distribution, calculate distance-to-care metrics, and support network adequacy assessments.

ndc admission datendc_admn_dt

Date on which a patient was admitted to an inpatient facility in conjunction with a pharmaceutical claim containing a National Drug Code. Used in pharmacy and medical claims crosswalks to link drug administration to inpatient stays and support coordination of benefits analysis.

ndc discharge datendc_dsch_dt

Date on which a patient was discharged from an inpatient or observation stay associated with a pharmacy claim containing a National Drug Code. Used to determine the duration of drug therapy during hospitalization and reconcile inpatient drug utilization with medical claims data.

ndc labelndc_lbl

Human-readable display text associated with a National Drug Code, typically including the drug name, strength, dosage form, and manufacturer. Used in pharmacy systems, formulary management, and reporting interfaces to present drug information in a clinically meaningful format.

ndc procedure datendc_proc_dt

Date on which a clinical procedure was performed in association with a National Drug Code claim, such as a drug administered during a treatment session. Used in pharmacy and medical claims analysis to correlate drug utilization with specific procedural encounters and support episode-of-care grouping.

ndc surgery datendc_surg_dt

Date on which a surgical procedure was performed in conjunction with a National Drug Code-linked drug claim, such as anesthesia agents or surgical prophylaxis. Used to align pharmaceutical utilization data with operative encounters for perioperative cost analysis and outcomes reporting.

nephrology active indicatorneph_actv_ind

Binary flag indicating whether a nephrology-related record, such as a patient diagnosis, treatment plan, or dialysis enrollment, is currently active in the clinical system. Used to filter active kidney disease cases in population health registries and chronic condition management programs.

nephrology active statusneph_actv_sts

Current activity state of a nephrology care episode, referral, or treatment program, distinguishing between active, inactive, discharged, or transferred patients. Used in chronic kidney disease management workflows and care coordination systems to track patient engagement across stages of renal care.

nephrology admission dateneph_admn_dt

The date a patient was formally admitted to a hospital or inpatient facility for nephrology-related care, such as acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease management, or dialysis initiation. Used in clinical and claims data to calculate length of stay and track kidney disease episodes.
