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.

Subject: ESWL expansion?

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!

the great thing about MT'g is you always learn -doing this 23+ yrs and there were things I was doing wrong for years,  cause I just didn't know, and back in 1985 the AAMT Book of Style was 85 pages long - I HAVE ONE....*l*  It's a never-ending field for learning for me, really all of us if you think about it,  all the time and if I can help, I want to help; yet I'm still not as knowledgeable as some other posters, so I keep an open mind to keep on learning....*S*
