Dear all,
I have a research use case, where I need to be able to somehow connect the answers provided to a certain Questionnaire to the FHIR resource.
For example,
I have questionnaire which asks questions related to the imaging study which done to the patient.
The questions like:

* Is the participant eligible for inclusion on this study? – Yes, No
* Was imaging agent administered? – Yes, No
* Was imaging completed? – Yes, No

All the above questions are part of a certain research questionnaire, and I need to connect the answers collected in the corresponding QuestionnaireResponse to
the related ImagingStudy resource.

I already asked a similar question in “ImagingStudy related questions” thread, and I am very grateful to Lloyd and Elliot for answering and providing a very valuable advice.
I did my research on FHIR Questionnaire and QuestionnaireResponse resources and I was thinking a lot, but I still have no idea what would be the best way to do it ☹

Thank you!!!

The simplest way is to have a question in your Questionnaire whose answer is a Reference to the ImagingStudy. Without a user actually picking the study from a user interface, I can't imagine how else you'd figure out the linkage. The SDC IG has a number of extensions that allow you to filter what types of References are allowed for a particular answer.

HI Lloyd, thank you very much.
Having a question in the Questionnaire which answer is a Reference to the ImagingStudy or any other resource is a very good idea. Thank you!
Olga
