This guy needs to speak English!!
He is talking about "frontal and lateral chest radiographs.
Can't tell if this heading is "IMPRESSION" or "DEPRESSION" (would there even be a heading of DEPRESSION?
Under whatever the heading is he says "Mildly increased perihilar (then sounds like he says LONG markings)" Would that be LONG or LUNG markings?

We can't see the rest of the report and what might be dozens of clues. Does the patient have cancer?
If people take time to read and try to help, please take the time to provide some clues. When we can't understand a word in our own reports, it's the whole report we draw from.

Usually depends on the type of report
Subject: Usually depends on the type of report
While account specifics vary from hospital to hospital, I don't think I've had a hospital with an H&P that didn't require that you separate out the headings; discharge summaries, on the other hand, are usually allowed to be in paragraph form, and consults are a toss-up. Clinic/office notes are totally a matter of account specifics. When you get into specialty clinics, they sometimes break it down even further; i.e., an ENT doctor may separate out HEAD: EYES: EARS:, etc., and a neurologist may do MENTAL STATUS: CRANIAL NERVES: STRENGTH: REFLEXES, etc. However, in most cases, if the doctor uses headings in an exam for some of the systems/body parts, you usually are to use the appropriate ones for all; as noted, though, that is dependent on account specifics.

Have a question I need help with. I work in a family practice clinic. Our x-rays are read by a hospital radiologist and transcribed at the hospital. Perhaps I am a bit anal about this but there is a term that the hospital transcriptionist uses over and over on head CT, cervical spine x-rays - the term is: Scobi structures?? I cannot find scobi anywhere in my reference material. Is anyone familiar with that term? I am thinking more along the lines of skull base structures are normal. I appreciate your input. Deb

Subject: radiology
Thanks everyone for replying. I had x-ray tech talk to the radiologist and he is saying skull base structures. Now how to tactfully tell the hospital MT. She is not always open to any corrections. I think I will let the x-ray dept take care of it. Not everyone likes corrections. I definitely want someone to correct me if I am making a mistake so I do not continue to make the same mistakes over and over!
