The use of this reference set structure is now discouraged as it requires implementers to create a new refset concept for every new annotation type. A new refset format is currently being discussed here: SNOMED CT Annotations and alternate RF2 specifications will be generated in due course.
An allows

Annotation reference set - Data structure |
The following metadata in supports this :

The tables below show the descriptors that define the structure of the pattern and examples of the descriptors for specific
that follow this pattern.

In the above example, the two URLs have been used to annotate two with images on the web. It is not recommended that this mechanism be used to annotate
with text that may require translation to other
. Instead, such text should be included under an appropriate
type within the
