There is no evidence of loose body. On the lateral view, s/l **Blue-mont-slots** line is intact with neutral patella. There are no significant degenerative changes of the patellofemoral compartment. There is no evidence of subluxation or tilt. ...
I'm just wondering how everyone is making that transition? I have online courses that will come to an end eventually, and I will have to be in a classroom setting again. I'm nervous about the interaction, as I have tried to go to school before and had bad anxiety. I'm not sure if it is cause and effect, being an MT in my quiet hole for so long, or what.

I know I have heard this in the past and know I have typed it too, but I'm drawing a blank. I've been searching everywhere on the internet and in my books and can't find it, and it's coming up incorrectly spelled.
Is it Willitz examination? ...
This surgeon is dictating about an excision of this patient's "left frontal skull area. This was lipoma on pathology. She has ecchymosis in her bilateral lateral auricular area."
