Check out this link which discussed the Allred score and includes a chart.  There is indeed an Allred score pertaining to breast cancer, and doc could have dictated that.  Of course BI-RADS is a much more common term, but maybe, just maybe, it was Allred.   Let's hope Lauren's ears didn't miss a B-sound at the beginning.

and cares.

I am thankful we are allowed to still use 2 spaces after colons and periods. The main thing I hear about from QA is to transcribe dates in the format dictated, and that's hard for me because I'm used to making them all conform to the same format that is used in the demographics 00/00/00, even if they dictate "May 5th, '05."

I Googled this as I had never heard of it either. It got a couple of hits, but nothing reliable. I wouldn't use it unless you can find it in a reliable reference source. Can you give me some more of the paragraph? Maybe the sentences before and after, so I can see more of the context?

The only thing I did find that it could possibly be is spinal muscular atrophy. Could that possibly be it?

she was looking for the plural form of decubitus, saying she got stumped by it.  I responded very simply to that.  I did not feel I needed to correct her use of "pleural" as was not her question and just quickly wanted to help her, and checked my medical references to do so.  I pointed out that there are no plural form for decubitus.  This is all correct.  What is your problem.  I was trying to help an MT with correct and verfified medical transcription help, now I know why I stay away from any message boards, always someone who wants a fight.  Whatever.

Word Help for Pex - sorry not yet, but ....
Subject: Word Help for Pex - sorry not yet, but ....

Hi, CC ...


I'm sorry that I don't have an answer for you regarding "pex", but I have just contacted a GI doctor friend of mine to ask him if he is familiar with the word.  You said that it was used in a sentence with the phrase: "the esophagus was pexed", so I thought that maybe, since he does EGDs, he might be familiar with that word. 


Once thing I ask ... please ... when you find your answer - and you will - please post it on the board so that we who are just learning surgcal dictation can add it to our repetoire of weird words.  PLEASE?  Thanks, and good luck.  I hope I have an answer for you later this evening, or that someone else does.   Judy H.
