If you don't have Stedman's Medical & Surgical Equipment Words book you should get it. This book is amazing. Pretty much any piece of medical/surgical equipment is in there. It is worth its weight in gold. If your company doesn't offer discounted books, you can purchase it a Amazon.com either new or used, and they have great used book. I bought my entire collection of Stedman's words book used. All of them are in at least good condition.

One of my ortho MDs likes using a s/l "Ansbach/Aunsbach" or "Onsbach" bur when doing both cervical diskectomy and fusion and lumbar laminotomy, facetectomy and decompression. I have googled and also searched all of that MD's reports in our database and noticed that the other transcriptionists have left this blank in every snigle reoprt. Anybody ever heard of this?
