Brustag line? in knee MRI - Rita
Posted: Dec 17, 2014
In a knee MRI report, "the ACL... does not exactly follow the Brustag line." Been doing radiology for 15 years, never heard this one! This dictator clearly spelled out Brustag. (Yeah, we all know the credibility of MD's spelling sometimes!) I have to say that although his first language IS Chinese, he's very clear to me otherwise. Anyone know this one? Thank you!!
Many thanks to all of you for reading/replying! - Still stumped. NM

Okay, If You Were Making .04/line With VR But Offered 08/line With Transcription . . . Unlimited Amt Apr 22, 2010I do have some benefits with the VR job, but not good enough to even take them on right now. After 3 months I will start accruing PTO up to 12 days a year. Is it worth it? I was thinking having benefits would be really nice for once in the last 16 years, but now I am thinking it may not be worth the struggle to make a living on VR. They said the platform for transcription is chartnet or chartscript? What do you all think? ...

MRI Report - Knee Feb 16, 2012Dictated:
Minimal s/l sc____ing in/of Hoffa’s fat pad as well as some degenerative change of the distal femur anterior to the weight bearing surface was noted.
I first thought it might be "scarring" but he is not making an "r" sound in the middle .. more like "l" or "w" - sculling, scowing. I am not familiar with this term/phrase in MRI. Is anyone else? Is it scarring ? or something else? and then would it be "in" or "of" Hoffa's fat pad?
