LOINC Code 94224-3: RET gene full mutation analysis Sequencing Doc (Bld/Tiss)

94224-3 is a LOINC code used to identify RET gene full mutation analysis Sequencing Doc (Bld/Tiss) in laboratory and clinical observation data. You may see this code in lab systems, lab reports, EHR exports, interoperability feeds, or other structured clinical data exchanges. LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component RET gene full mutation analysis. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bld/Tiss.

What is this code?

LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component RET gene full mutation analysis. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Bld/Tiss.

When is it used?

  • Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
  • May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
  • Status: ACTIVE
  • Order vs observation: Both
  • Method: Sequencing

What it does not mean

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