An evaluator examines the images of the thoracic and abdominal regions produced by the CT scan and decides whether TAA and AAA are present as well as their locations. Note for viewing simplicity, some variables are omitted from the table below.

Note the TUTEST here is: Aneurysm Location Identification, TUORRES = Located.

  •  should TUTEST be: Lesion Location Identification, and TULNKID = Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm 1?

Rows 1-2:I examined the image of the thoracic region (test location) and found an aneurysm in the Thoracic Aorta (result location) spanning from the aortic arch to the descending aorta (result location detail). In this case result location detail further qualifies both ORRES and RESLOC, hence this is a variable qualifier.
Rows 3-4:I examined the image of the thoracic region (test location) and found that the descending aorta (result location) had dissected (the artery is tore and a false lumen had formed), most likely due to the enormous pressure caused by the large aneurysm in this area.
Rows 5-6:I examined the image of the abdominal region (test location) and found an aneurysm in the infrarenal aorta (result location), proximal to the iliac bifurcation (result location detail). In this case result location detail is a variable qualifier for the result, I am trying to say that the aneurysm is located in the segment of the infrarenal aorta closer (proximal) to the iliac bifurcation.
Rows 7-8:I examined the image of the abdominal region (test location) and found that the infrarenal aorta (result location) had dissected.

Note for Tumor Findings, it is recommended not to populate TRLOC because locations of tumors have been identified in TU. Should this rule be followed for non-tumor lesion?
