Subject: patient has non small cell carcinoma...modality for s/l swog-por-risk protocol. sm pls.
Should the disease be localized to the chest without any nodules seen, he is at best a locally advanced stage 3b non small cell carcinoma. Recommendations at that point would be for combined modality therapy, perhaps on the Swog-Por-risk protocol.

GROUP B STREP IN DIAGNOSIS
I'm confused on group B strep in a diagnosis. My research tells me that group B and group beta strep are interchangeable; however, on a recent audit I was counted off because I typed group beta Streptococcus in the diagnosis. Was corrected that it should be: group B Streptococcus. Anybody know which is correct? Thank you!

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.

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.
