looking at several use cases for images and this one stumps me:

patient supplied photo of lesion

The patient uploads the image to the "docs for docs" tab which creates a DocumentReference.

Clinician review the content of image ... and chooses to make part of record

  • how would this image be exposed to the clinician? : Condition.evidence.detail? as part of encounter? or as an Observation?

So I am asking @Michelle (Moseman) Miller

I intended that clincian review of something like that --> ClinicalImpression

My question remains how does the clinician get his eyeballs on the ClinicalImpression for patient X with image y. Is that a ref from the Encounter they look at prior to entering the room. ( In my world the client would show me the image on their phone.. what is the equivalent in FHIR)
