Patient with breast cancer.

Patient has nipple retraction and s/l tepicular thickening in the posterior region of the right breast. 

Doctor dictates:

"I think the largest of her multiple breast nodules should be ultrasound core-biopsied in order to exclude the possibility of a Fah-LOI-dees," although given their size, this is unlikely, but given that they have increased in size, it may be possible."       

Thank you for your help!

This is pertaining to a breast carcinoma. I know what it means, but am not sure how to write it.  I was wondering if someone could help me with the correct way to type this:
