Clinical

The recorded date of death for a patient associated with an ultrasound record, used to flag deceased patient records in radiology and EHR systems. Supports accurate patient status management, prevents erroneous scheduling or billing activity, and enables mortality-related outcomes analysis in imaging data sets.

The calendar date on which an ultrasound record was marked as deleted or inactivated within the radiology information or health information system. Captured to maintain a complete audit trail of record lifecycle events, support data governance processes, and enable soft-delete tracking without permanent data loss.

A binary flag indicating that an ultrasound record has been logically removed or inactivated in the radiology information or health information system without physical deletion. Used to suppress voided or erroneous records from active clinical views while retaining the data for audit, compliance, and historical reporting purposes.

Narrative text describing a sonographic imaging study, including anatomical region examined, imaging technique, and clinical findings. Used in radiology information systems and EHRs to document and communicate ultrasound results to ordering clinicians and for medical record documentation.

Granular clinical and technical data captured during a sonographic imaging procedure, such as transducer settings, image acquisition parameters, measurements, and findings per anatomical structure. Supports radiologist interpretation and downstream clinical decision-making in imaging workflows.

The date a patient was discharged from a facility following an inpatient or observation encounter during which a sonographic imaging study was performed. Used in clinical data systems to correlate ultrasound procedures with episode-of-care timelines and post-discharge follow-up planning.

The scheduled or anticipated date by which a sonographic imaging study is to be completed, often tied to obstetric estimated delivery dates, follow-up imaging protocols, or prior authorization timelines in radiology and care management workflows.

The elapsed time from initiation to completion of a sonographic imaging session, measured in minutes. Used in radiology scheduling, workflow efficiency reporting, and billing systems to assess technologist productivity and allocate imaging suite resources appropriately.

The electronic mail address associated with a patient, referring clinician, or radiology contact linked to a sonographic imaging order or report. Used to deliver imaging results, appointment confirmations, or authorization notifications within radiology and care coordination workflows.

A flag identifying whether a sonographic imaging order was requested on an emergent or urgent basis, such as for suspected ectopic pregnancy or aortic aneurysm rupture. Drives prioritization in radiology worklists and ensures timely interpretation and result communication in clinical systems.

The calendar date on which a sonographic imaging study or associated imaging series was completed. Used in radiology information systems and clinical data warehouses to calculate procedure duration, close imaging orders, and support longitudinal tracking of diagnostic imaging episodes.

The timestamp marking the conclusion of a sonographic imaging session. Combined with start time to calculate total procedure duration, support technologist workflow analysis, and ensure accurate documentation in radiology information systems and clinical audit records.

The identifier of the clinician, technologist, or administrative user who entered the sonographic imaging order, result, or associated data into the system. Used for audit trail purposes, accountability tracking, and quality assurance reviews within radiology and clinical documentation workflows.

The self-reported or recorded ethnicity of the patient undergoing a sonographic imaging study. Used in clinical data systems to support population health analytics, health equity reporting, and research into diagnostic imaging utilization patterns across demographic groups.

The date after which a sonographic imaging order, prior authorization, or associated referral is no longer considered valid. Used in radiology scheduling and utilization management systems to prevent execution of expired orders and ensure compliance with payer authorization requirements.

A unique reference code assigned by an external system, such as a referring hospital, imaging center, or health information exchange, to identify a sonographic imaging study. Enables cross-system tracking, result reconciliation, and interoperability between disparate radiology and EHR platforms.

The facsimile number used to transmit sonographic imaging reports, orders, or authorization documents to referring clinicians, specialists, or facilities. Supports result delivery workflows in radiology systems where electronic interfaces are unavailable or not yet established.

The charge amount associated with performing and interpreting a sonographic imaging study, including technical and professional components. Used in healthcare billing systems to generate claims, apply contractual adjustments, and report procedure-level revenue for radiology services rendered.

The given name of the patient scheduled for or who underwent a sonographic imaging study. Used in radiology information systems and EHRs for patient identification, demographic matching, and ensuring accurate association of imaging results with the correct individual medical record.

A binary or coded indicator applied to a sonographic imaging record to denote a specific condition, such as critical finding, quality review needed, or result pending clinician acknowledgment. Used in radiology worklist management and clinical follow-up tracking workflows.
