Dissecting popliteal cyst? - Little Lotte

Posted: Jan 12, 2011

Hello! :) I am trying to type up a Radiology report, and the word "dissecting" doesn't seem to be the right form for the context of this sentence: "As demonstrated on the thigh MRI, there is a 2.1 by 2.3 cm popliteal cyst (dissecting) along the fascial planes." The doctor uses the phrase "dissecting popliteal cyst" several times, and it is crystal clear that he enunciates an "ing" on the end of the word dissect. Any suggestions? The way this sentence is worded sounds wrong. Like wrong tense or something...

Help appreciated!

I found dissecting popliteal cyst on the internet. If it is clear, I would type exactly what the doctor is dictating, just my opinion.
