LOINC Property - Anatomical site and associated LOINC terms

We would like to know if "anatomical site" is an accepted property?

LOINC manual defines this property as following:

"To accommodate the special dimensions of clinical observations we have introduced new options for the kind of Property. The new kinds of Property are what you might expect from the new kinds of dimensions being measured (e.g., resistance, voltage, work per beat):
...
Anat: Anatomic is a special case of Prid that identifies anatomic sites."
