No, he's not saying electrocoagulation, though it does sound like something similar to that because he sounds like it's a device for cutting or method of cutting.  He says it twice in the report, and both times, it sounds like ahkupuration.  I tried various spellings including beginning with ac, acq, oq, ok, and anything else I could think of, but I'm still stumped.  It has my proofer stumped too.

Aren't "AP, lateral, and oblique" adjectives? If so, then "views" would be the inferred subject and would therefore make the verb plural.

If I get a job and QA says we have to, I will make the change of course, but it might take some practice before I can be consistent with that illogical change. I would hope QA would be more interested in content than meaningless, illogical BOS changes.

Sorry it took so long to respond. I had it set to inform me of answers via e-mail; however, that little feature failed to work this time.
