Subject: Oncology query...irradiated or radiated
This is from a transfusion reaction report for my oncology account: She was receiving the second of 2 units of leukoreduced irradiated red blood cells on March 20, 2007, for a hemoglobin of 6.6 g/dL and developed skin flushing 15 minutes after the unit was started. The transfusion was stopped, and she was given 25 mg of diphenhydramine orally.
I can't honestly be sure that she's saying irradiated or if she's actually saying radiated. I got a sample from the office for another transfusion reaction report by the same dictator, and that report had leukoreduced irradiated platelets. That's influencing my hearing, I think. This is above my realm of knowledge, and I'm honestly not sure which it really should be, and I don't want to totally trust the other MT's report when I know nothing about her or her knowledge base.

I have experience with hematology/oncology but not radiation oncology. Is it a difficult jump from one to the other? Broad learning curve? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm doing an oncology report by an ESL on a patient with an abnormal platelet and white count. She says they have sent investigations for molecular diagnostics including BCR-ABL translocation. Then she seems to back track and correct herself and say BCR-ABL and translocation and jactermitation to evaluate for myeloproliferative disorders. Any ideas?
Meanwhile, I'll go back to trying to research this on Google.

Subject: oncology help, please

No, I don't think it's hypermutation, but I believe I've got it. I believe she is saying BCR/ABL translocation and JAK2 mutation.
