Method of Lipmann and Codd??
Subject: Method of Lipmann and Codd??

Anyone ever heard of this?? Used in radiology report (scolioisis series). We cannot find any info on this--someone here thinks it's "Cobb" . . . ??? Sounds very much like "cod" No one is sure. Sentence reads: "There is a scoliois to the left. Using the method of Lipmann and Codd the angulation would measure 17 degrees".


Perhaps it's a mathematical term but cannot find anything on this.


HELP-- we've been typing it for years: Lipmann and Codd

adding a followup "thank you" post for every single question just clutters up the board, really. I'm much more appreciative of a /well-formulated/ question that gives enough context for some to be /able/ to help and, in particular, one that demonstrates the questioner has at least tried to research it. ;-)
