DRL value set in a country based on data from a representative sample of healthcare facilities in that country. A DRL is defined for a specified clinical imaging task. DRL values are usually defined as the third quartile (75th percentile) of the distribution of the median values of the appropriate DRL quantity observed at each healthcare facility.
