cubic cm - Mimi

If dictated "The aortic valve area was measured at 0.98 cubic centimeters". Is that cc or cu.cm. What is the proper way according to AAMT style?
cc - sm
[ In Reply To ..]From AHDI Book of Style 3:
MTs should continue to transcribe cubic centimeter references to mass as cc, as are encountered in measuring organs, tissues, and specimens of solid volume.
Hope this answers your question.

Girls, 1. What does AAMT (2nd edition) say about transcribing cubic centimeters? and 2. What is the corrrect word for itching pruritus or pruritis? I am taking the CMT Exam in two weeks and noticed there are two of these. However, the first one above stated it was the unpleasant sensation of wanting to itch, whereas the second one was defined as actually itching? Appreciate your help and have a GREAT TRANSCRIPTION DAY! ...
