ESWL
Subject: ESWL

I have been doing transcription for urologists for several years now, however, I'm stumped on this one.  I know some doctors will dictate "cabbage" when meaning CABG and now I'm wondering if anyone is familiar with a doctor dictating "eswol" short for spelling out ESWL.

I have always been taught ESWL stood for electric shock wave lithotripsy.  However, I stumbled upon a web site today for says ESWL stands for extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.  Are these interchangeable??  Which do you use when your doc just says "ESWL" and you need to expand it?


Thanks for any info!
