Cross map<br />

A Cross Map is a reference from a Concept code to a Cross Map Target. Each Cross Map is represented as<br />

a row in the Cross Maps Table. It links a single <strong>SNOMED</strong> CT concept code to one or more codes in a target<br />

classification (such as ICD-9-CM) or terminology. A Concept code may have a single Cross Map or a set of<br />

alternative Cross Maps<br />

Cross map set<br />

A set of Cross Maps that together provide a valid way of mapping some or all <strong>SNOMED</strong> CT Concepts to a<br />

specified Target Scheme. Alternative Cross Map Sets may exist for the same Target Scheme, if business<br />

rules or guidelines alter the appropriateness of particular mappings to that scheme. Each Cross Map Set is<br />

represented as a row in the Cross Map Sets Table.<br />

Cross map sets table<br />

A data table consisting of rows each of which represents a Cross Map Set.<br />

Cross map target<br />

A code or set of codes in a Target Scheme that together represent an appropriate mapping from a clinical<br />

statement expressed using <strong>SNOMED</strong> CT. Some Cross Map Targets may be derived from two or more<br />

associated statements and in these cases the combination can be expressed as a set of associated rules.<br />

Each Cross Map Target is represented as a row in the Cross Map Targets Table.<br />
