## Union of http://hl7.eu/fhir/base-r5/StructureDefinition/medicalTestResult-eu-core and http://hl7.eu/fhir/base-r5/StructureDefinition/medicalTestResult-eu-core

This is the set of resources that conform to either of the profiles MedicalTestResult (EU core) (http://hl7.eu/fhir/base-r5/StructureDefinition/medicalTestResult-eu-core) and Observation: Medical Test Result (EU core) (http://hl7.eu/fhir/base-r5/StructureDefinition/medicalTestResult-eu-core). E.g. what you have to deal with if you get resources conforming to one of them
