A Quantity Measurement Observation records quantity measurements based on image data
such as linear, area, volume, and numeric measurements. The codes in DIRQuantityMeasurementTypeCodes
(ValueSet: 2.16.840.1.113883.11.20.9.29) are from the qualifier hierarchy of SNOMED
CT and are not valid for observation/code according to the Term Info guidelines. These
codes can be
used for backwards compatibility, but going forward, codes from the observable entity
hierarchy will be requested and used.

The value set of the observation/code includes numeric measurement types for linear
dimensions, areas, volumes, and other numeric measurements. This value set is extensible
and comprises the union of SNOMED codes for observable entities as reproduced in DIRQuantityMeasurementTypeCodes
