  • Status: TRIAL
  • Order vs observation: Observation

What it does not mean

  • The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.

Key facts

Structural variant cytogenetic location [Identifier]
Structural variant cytogenetic location
The chromosome region where the structural variant was found, for example, 17p12. This term may be used when more specific information, such as the structural variant reported start-end [LOINC81287-5], precision of boundaries [LOINC: 81288-3] and inner and outer start-end [LOINC: 81302-2] and [LOINC: 81301-4], respectively, cannot be or are not reported.
