FYI: response from Dan Vreeman on Clinical LOINC hierarchy. For anyone else who is interested, let me know as we will be talking about LOINC hierarchy and metadata for i2b2 Thursday 11AM CDT

The radiology report section and document ontology portion are flushed out pretty well. We don't have an all-encompassing hierarchy that contains every term. You might use the "flat" class groupings as a first order categorization for the other clinical measurements. -- Thanks, Daniel J.

Where do I find the set of LOINC Parts used as metadata for the Class Hierarchy for Clinical LOINC?

You can download it from the main LOINC download page. Just look for it under the heading "Accessory Files": https://loinc.org/downloads For lab tests, this is the hierarchy that organizes first by Component (analyte), and then by specimen (system). -- Thanks, Daniel J.

Can you please tell me where I can find that so that I can deploy a hierarchy build for our installation of i2b2?
