Lesion - surgical technique help needed, thanks. sm - Eva
Posted: Oct 23, 2010
Lesion has a pedunculated top, could be skin cancer. She may need a s/l mol/mal/maw surgery technique.there is
I've looked through the books I have, and tried with key words, but can't find anything that I trust fully. It doesn't sound like he's saying mole, but that's the only thing I can think of.
Thanks for any insight.
Something doctor just added...sm - Eva
[ In Reply To ..]The reason he thinks the s/l mol technique is needed it due to the fact that the lesion has the potential to be disfiguring.
Thanks.
I believe he's saying Mohs - thanks. nm - Eva

BOS3 Question, Is It 3-cm Lesion Or 3 Cm Lesion?
Apr 30, 2010
I have the BOS2 which says the hyphenation should be "a 3-cm lesion," but "the lesion measures 3 cm." I was recently told that the BOS3 changes this and now they don't want hyphens in there at all. I don't have the money to buy the BOS3 yet, but if there is anybody who does have it, would you be able to tell me what it says about hyphenating or not hyphenating this? Have they changed this now? ...

At some point, it seems most management has started to treat the worker bees as enemies instead of part of the team. It's short-sighted and lazy, and I know it has to be costin ...

Questions On Your Technique
Jun 12, 2011
I am wondering what method you all use for transcribing. Do you listen and type word for word, or do you listen to the complete thought before typing it?

I am continually trying to find ways to improve speed without a lot of success. I am very frustrated and having difficulty paying my bills. Also, in case it co ...
