Can anyone help me out? I am typing an echocardiogram and the sentence was dictated as follows: "There does not appear to be any pulmonic valve stenosis or regurgitation, although upon color flow and doppler evaluation, there is _________ in the area of the great vessels and aortic valve." The word sounds like "alucin" or "aleocin". Thanks!
