She is status post left lower eyelid lesion and s/l radioplaning of multiple seborrheic keratoses. 

Any ideas???

TIA!!!

are they saying "radio"ablation ? - elaine

[ In Reply To ..]
i.e., radiofrequency ablation.

no, it is clearly - radioplaning

[ In Reply To ..]
...but I cannot find reference to it except on a plastic surgeon's website where it's listed as radioplanning (which I know cannot be correct)

And - according to the website

[ In Reply To ..]
It is the same thing as dermal planing (and they still have it listed as planning)
