Equipment Terms." However, your matchstick bur isn't in there. The surgeon could be referring to the shape of the bur, rather than a trademark name. I'd flag it if no one else comes up with a concrete reference.

improve a patient's nutritional status., but rather do the complete opposite. I think the physician meant to dictate "GI" physician since he/she mentioned the dysphagia in the dictation, which is also a common place for strictures or lesions to develop.

Page 194 in Stedman's Radiology book is concha bullosa or pleural form is conchae bullosa....
Also found this out...
Concha Bullosa
A concha bullosa (CB) is a common anatomical variation that occurs when an air pocket forms in the middle turbinate.
On a CT scan, a concha bullosa looks almost like a small balloon with a thin, bony lining. If you develop this condition, you may be symptom-free, or you may have facial pain and pressure and nasal blockage. A concha bullosa is easily corrected with endoscopic sinus surgery.
Hope this helps!!!

Heads up on Stedmans CD books
Subject: Heads up on Stedmans CD books
Hi all..
I have bought quite a few Stedmans CDs which are wonderful. Then came the Cardiology book and apparently all that will follow. They go on the ready reference bookshelf by LWW...It severely limits your abilities to search...for instance if you are looking for some kind of syndrome you can't hear what it is but you know it is a syndrome. where u can go into the books and look under syndrome and hope to hit pay dirt..The ready reference bookshelf doesn't allow you to search like that. Same thing with Quick Look Drug book 2008 same problem...The tech quy has said he has heard the same complaints...Just a heads up before you go wasting your money buy the books instead from here on out :-( Rots cause the CDs were 100 times easier. I complained and they don't seem to care what I think...Unless I am doing something wrong in my searches and anyone has an answer on how to fix the problem...We gotta stick together here...:-)
