Does the patient have Aortic aneurysm? Aortic arch aneurysm? Thoracic aortic aneurysm? Suprarenal Abdominal abdominal aneurysm? etc.
In this instance the specific anatomical location pre-specified in the question is where the test is performed.

Row 1: | Shows the presence of coarctation in the aorta. Since "aortic" is included in the CVTEST, the anatomical location is null. |
|---|
Row 2: | Shows the continued assessment of this same coarctation by capturing its severity. There are three main types of aortic coarctation; preductal, ductal, and postductal. The CVTEST indicates the severity of the preductal coactation. Since "aortic" is included in the CVTEST, the anatomical location is null. |
|---|
Row 3: | Indicates the presence of an aneurysm in the thoracic aorta. |
|---|
Row 4: | Shows that the aneurysm led to the dissection of the thoracic aorta. |
|---|
Row 5: | Shows the confirmed aortic dissection of the thoracic aorta from the previous assessment then undergoes anatomic classification. In this case, the patient's dissection is classified as Standford Class A, indicating that this aortic dissection involves the ascending aorta regardless of the site of origin [ref]. |
|---|
Rows 6-7: | Indicate the absence of aneurysms in both the suprarenal and infrarenal abdominal aorta. |

From the CV-imaging project we also encountered use-cases where we need sub-loc variables to help to further specify the detailed, more granular locations where a test is performed. Those values are indeed location information that should NOT be pre-coordinated into the TEST itself, but are also inappropriate for LOC.
So we need a variable that provides additional, more specific and granular information about a proximate location or a range of location(s).
This example shows the minor axis cross-sectional diameter measurements of the left and right ventricle of the heart, at end ventricular diastole.
