Client profile dictates whether or not to give this dictator mets or metastasis.....his saying *met* was wrong. I would've given him *mets* unless the client profile allows expanding of words, and in that case I would've given them *metastasis*

metastasis versus metastases
Subject: metastasis versus metastases
Any advice will be appreciated.
In many reports, I have heard doctors dictate "mets," which I would like to expand when necessary but sometimes am just not sure if singular or pleural expansion applies, e.g., "He has mets to the pelvis," (and then later on dictates) "He is thought to have probable liver mets." So, would each example I gave be expanded as metastasis or metastases, since there's more than one location of spread but each area of the body is dictated separately?
