extensor hallucis is ...
Subject: extensor hallucis is ...

 Dictated:  Tibialis anterior on the left is 4+/5. Extensor hallucis is 5/5. If she did not dictate "left" - then it would be "are" 4+5, correct?


extensor hallucis......sm
Subject: extensor hallucis......sm

Per my experience, and this is only mine, when a doc starts dictating, "tibialis anterior on the left is 4+/5, extensor hallucis is 5/5", that doc is dictating about one side. If he/she changes sides, i.e., left to right, he/she may possibly say....."tibialis tendon on the left is 4+/5 and 5/5" (meaning on the right). But, they do not usually change sides AND tendons like that. Per your account, it sounds like the doc is speaking about the same side as she is not comparing; she's just talking about two different tendons.

If she is referring to both great toes, she will usually pronounce in the proper manner, which you would spell halluces.

And, no, "are" would be completely wrong in this case as she is dictating that ONE tendon is 4+/5 and ANOTHER tendon is 5/5.

You do understand the anatomy, right?

The doc is dictating excision of a ganglion in the dorsum of the left wrist.  "Thickened synovium was excised from the interval between the common extensors and s/l "extensor ingeus proprius."  Any help?  I cannot find that in any lists of extensors anywhere.   Thanks in advance!

Hi Shirl -

Hang in there, this will be old hat to you after a while. Radiology reports are usually pretty standard. Same phrases/terms used by all radiologists.

Some usual headings in a radiology report are:

CLINICAL INDICATION: or INFORMATION: or HISTORY, or variations of any of these.

FINDINGS: or RESULTS:

IMPRESSION: or OPINION:

Start adding the common phrases, like "lung markings" and all the various possible headers as above, to whatever word expander program you have. You'll be flying through reports in no time!

"D: IMPRESSION:  Occipital neuralgia probable acute gastroenteritis"


question: how will I transcribe that? coz Occipital neuralgia is not related to "probable acute gastroenteritis" isn't it? or possibly there was a 2 impression. one, is occipital neuralgia and secondly, acute gastroenteritis?... What's the meaning by the dictator?


NOTE: but the dictator did not dictate any numbering.... 


Assessment or Impression
Is it an AAMT rule to automatically number the diagnoses in the Assessment or Impression of an H&P or soap even if the dictator does not?  TIA!
