Re: Renal ultrasound report/BPH - nn


Posted: Dec 03, 2010

#1: I wanted to know if this sounds like the correct phrase? 

"EXAM: Renal ultrasound.

HISTORY: (S/l "Focal"?) destructive BPH.

 TECHNIQUE: Multiple images were taken of both kidneys and the bladder."

 

#2: In the same report, I see under findings that it says right after dictating the size of the kidneys: "No other (?) noted." Would that be "No other deficits noted" ?

#3: Should the word be just typed as "symmetric" or "symmetrical"? I think symmetrical sounds better but wanted to know somebody else's opinion.

" The renal cortical measurements appear symmetrical."

 

Thanks so much in advance.

[ In Reply To ..]
Symmetric/symmetrical are both correct. Don't overthink it, and type as dictated.

I'm not sure what you mean on question #2. Are you saying there is a blank that sounds like deficits? If so, you are probably hearing "defects".
