You can have a coronal sulcus of the glans penis. The corona glandis is the widest part of the glans penis, is around the base of the proximal portion. A fold of dark, thin, hairless skin forms the foreskin covering the glans penis.
Do these help at all?

Active Tuberculosis
To diagnose TB of the respiratory tract, 3 to 5 sputum specimens are collected first thing in the morning on different days when they are most likely to contain the most mycobacteria. If extrapulmonary TB is suspected, samples are collected based upon where in the body the infection is likely to be. Multiple samples of gastric (stomach) washings/aspirates or urine may be collected and submitted to the laboratory. Sometimes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), biopsied tissue, or other body fluids are also collected.

The radiologists I work for do spell words right out of their books for me. What I notice is that their spelling does not often agree with my Stedman's books, but occasionally I can find their spelling in an HPI book (homolog/homologue is an example). But their books use many unneccessary hyphens, and it makes my job of listening more difficult when the MDs keep "helping" me by dictating words as hyphenated that are not hyphenated in Dorland's or any other dictionary.
These professional writers need to stop with the hyphenated words.

African-American hyphenated?
Subject: African-American hyphenated?
I was always taught African-American was hyphenated, and that's the way it came up on the ASR for the longest time. Now, it comes up without the hypen. Thoughts? We don't hyphenate Caucansian-male.
One thought - if the Indians are using our ASR, they should have to submit corrections before they are changed.
Just call me cornfused and befuzzled.

Does it matter when the doctor dictates the names in a different order than is listed in the word books? For example, O'Connor-O'Sullivan vs. O'Sullivan-O'Connor retractor.

Google:
Compounds with these prefixes are sometimes (but not always)
hyphenated to avoid doubling a vowel or tripling a consonant or vowel, and sometimes even to prevent initial misreading or mispronunciation.
