Try this site, you can click on the bones of the hand and it will tell you what the bone is called.

may be just too new to have much info on. I did see an article on Google with the Oakland Bone and Joint Specialists, where he and a colleague, Dr. Jeffrey Mann, were pioneering a new total ankle replacement. This is copyrighted for 2007-2008, so maybe he has developed dressings, bandages and such.
I'm gonna save this one, and if I do find it verified in any medical books, etc., will send you a message about it. Thanks for sharing!

Followup one week.
The patient came in for follow up of her acne. (I believe this can be hyphenated to follow-up.)
The patient will be seen for followup care in a month. (This, too, some MTs hyphenate to follow-up but I do not.)
The BOS has this very issue - Book of Style by the AAMT 2nd edition - discussed in it.

I'v been doing this for quite a few years, and last night had a report where I heard "Shoreman kyphosis," researched and found quite a few websites spelled this way, didn't really check to see source of websites, just that there were a LOT of them. (slap me with a wet noodle, I was tired and brain-dead because I know better)
Anyway, QA send me an email this morning with correct spelling, "Scheuermann kyphosis." citing Dorlands online.
You can bet I created a shorthand entry for that spelling immediately, and of course, sent of an email to my QA person letting her know how much I appreciated the feedback -- I never have questioned my research without the feedback!
Have a great day.
