No, I'm not afraid to post who I really am, but there's no need to. I didn't really mean to offend you, and I just felt I was stating the facts. I'm sorry.

Your email with the expletive was really, really rude, and I've reported it to the board moderator. If it's not from you but from a supporter, then I apologize for jumping to the wrong conclusion.

There is no other mention of the *gram in the report, either, so that is no help. Definitly not phlebogram. I am wondering if maybe she is saying A radiogram? Would like to know what you think. Thank you for your help

I'v been doing this for quite a few years, and last night had a report where I heard "Shoreman kyphosis," researched and found quite a few websites spelled this way, didn't really check to see source of websites, just that there were a LOT of them. (slap me with a wet noodle, I was tired and brain-dead because I know better)

Anyway, QA send me an email this morning with correct spelling, "Scheuermann kyphosis." citing Dorlands online.

You can bet I created a shorthand entry for that spelling immediately, and of course, sent of an email to my QA person letting her know how much I appreciated the feedback -- I never have questioned my research without the feedback!

Have a great day.

Subject: not sure but my guess would be SM

that the doctor will use a dye or ink of some kind to mark a spot where they remove a polyp or see something, so that they can locate the area more readily on followup.

but thats just a guess. I do rad and pathology and never have done gastroenterology procedure stuff.
I guess you mean that SM
Subject: I guess you mean that SM

there must be two openings in the nasal cavity.  Ostium means opening.  Meatus means opening also.  So if it is as you say, then ostium (opening) meatal (opening) complex is what you are referring to.   Plus that, there is no such word as ostio. 


I was referring to the osteum (bone) and meatus (opening) or the osteomeatal complex of the nose.

Just guessing here, but first sentence might be uterus normal tone, size and position.  Second sentence - about *____ dilated, should probably be  a number, not "already"  Uterus was sounded to 10 cm.   Sorry, can't help with the next sentence.


Best guess :)
Subject: Best guess :)

You're right on the "marrow" portions, but the only thing I can even hazard a guess at on the morphology is "an echoic."

I do not know. My guess is rad/cm2, which would be spoken as rad per centimeter squared.

Rad as the unit of radiation, and cm2 as the area of application.

But again, I don't know. Maybe someone can verify or deny that guess.
