What are opinions on the best way to represent something like RECIST data in a set of FHIR resources? (typically referred to as "response data")

view this post on Zulip David Pyke (Jun 23 2021 at 14:02):

Base information can be tracked via the Condition resource with specific data included in Observations and DiagnosticReports

So you're thinking that it's a combination of these resources linked together that would form the whole picture of a tumor's response overall? It would be great to see a fake example, I can try to mock one up...do you know of any out there in the wild?

Yeah, you're not going to have a single resource that can capture the wide array of information that is needed for a response. I'm not aware of a full example, but if you can create one, lots of people would love you for it.

@Lloyd McKenzie , any input as one of the resident FHIR gurus? Or @Hugh Glover ?

what's RECIST data? (I admit this grabbed my attention because I misread the title when scanning topics)

@May Terry may know if mCODE has done any work in this space

Agreed that the acronym could use some work....thanks to all the responses!
