Subject: This is a great example of how a Medical Phrase Index is handy..sm

I'm not in any way picking on you, but somebody below asked how to look up words when you're not sure what they are. Since you knew it was some kind of fork, you could have looked up "fork" in the MPI and it lists 7 different medical forks, and you would have been able to deduce 'tuning fork' from this since you had a soundalike. I learned more new words from this reference book than anything else.

Subject: Also found in Surgical Word Book ankle-brachial index, but

they have the pleural of index as indexes or indices, so either would be right then. So index, indexes or indices are all correct choices depending on how it is said, obviously.
