Systems and methods for establishing standardization of radiology imaging procedure types and data related to such radiology imaging procedure types are disclosed herein. Radiology imaging data produced from radiology procedures at plurality of different systems and locations may produce different data formats and data values, even for the same radiology procedure. In one example, a radiology imaging order system is configured to standardize these different data formats and data values to a standardized format and identification that can be used for radiology study assignment, categorization, analytics, and related data federation activities. In further examples, multiple radiology procedures from respective facilities are normalized to a radiology procedure type schema, with each normalized radiology procedure type identifiable with a human-readable procedure identifier. Other examples of processing activities and use of the procedure identifier and standardized data are also disclosed herein.
