Subject: anterior posterior drawer - need correct form

My doctor always says anterior posterior drawer negative or within normal limits....Does anyone know the correct form to type this?  Anterior/posterior drawer...anterior-posterior drawer...anteroposterior drawer.  I have located all forms on the internet but am still not sure which is correct.  TIA

AAMT has its own UNORTHODOX style of transcription. Transcribed reports should have the same style as the medical text books that MDs follow so that it would be easy on them if they can see a "familiar style" in the text of the reports. AAMT's style differs a lot from the style of the medical text books. No wonder that is causing a burden on the doctors that they have to even emphasize the style in their dictations.
