### C.4.4 Specific Section Content Mapping

Certain sections in a CDA Imaging Report have specific mappings from the DICOM SR header, or from specialized templates with content for particular uses.

#### C.4.4.1 Procedure Indications

The DICOM SR Document General Module may specify the Reason for the Requested Procedure as either free text in attribute (0040,1002), and/or as multiple coded values in attribute (0040,100A). These are mapped to the Procedure Indications subsection of the Clinical Information section of the CDA Imaging Report.

### Note

Procedure indications may also be specified as SR content items in the (18785-6, LN, "Indications for Procedure") CONTAINER, which may be mapped to the CDA instance in accordance with Section C.4.3. It is an implementation decision how to handle multiple representations of indications in the SR document.
