dictionary. If I had to know a multitude of different languages, I surely wouldn't do this for a living.

Anyone live in TX?
Subject: Anyone live in TX?
The s/l Setticus or Suttigus Railroad Yard has been mentioned repeatedly on this, and I can't verify anything similar. I've spelled it a hundred ways, even with a *C* beginning. They also mention Englewood, so it may be nearby. Any help is appreciated.

Does this statement sound right:
CT angio reveals right and left kidneys of equal size. Both kidneys are single artery, vein and ureter.
There is no vascular nonlead identified on her CT angio
In particular, it is the word nonlead that I am questioning. THX!!!!!

Hi, Newbie!
Guess they haven't taught you about homonyms yet. Sight, site, and cite are a good example of them. The correct one is site (location).
Also try ophthalmology specialty book, Surgical Word Book, and whatever hospital you're working for does have a list of the instruments used. I used to call Sterile Supply directly (in a former lifetime when we worked in hospitals) and then check their spelling.
Good luck.

you can do this with msn search or google - BIG help. I find 98% of everything like this but you helps to specify drain, catheter, or the like.
