0. Extension
Definition	The anatomic structures included in the document. Optional Extension Element - found in all resources.
Short	Body part includedOptional Extensions Element
Comments	`Media.bodySite` maps to R4 `Media.bodySite`. So is mapped as Equivalent.
Control	0..*
Is Modifier	false
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (extension.exists() != value.exists())
2. Extension.extension:_datatype
Slice Name	_datatype
Definition	Data type name for DocumentReference.bodySite from FHIR R5
Short	Data type name for DocumentReference.bodySite from FHIR R5
Control	0..1
Type	Extension(Datatype) (Extension Type: string)
Is Modifier	false
Summary	false
Invariants	ele-1: All FHIR elements must have a @value or children (hasValue() or (children().count() > id.count())) ext-1: Must have either extensions or value[x], not both (extension.exists() != value.exists())
4. Extension.extension:_datatype.extension
Definition	An Extension May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and managable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.
Short	ExtensionAdditional content defined by implementations
Comments	There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.
