probably "Mitral valve - grossly normal valve leaflet morphology and motion."

"Left ventricle - normal systolic and diastolic dimensions, grossly normal segmental wall motion and systolic function overall."

"Aortic valve - mildly sclerotic valve leaflets with no frank stenosis or regurgitation."

Where it says "Atrium normal.", listen for "Right atrium - normal."

Also maybe: "No significant effusion. Intracardiac masses or thrombi - none observed."

And a couple of other places where similar dashes would be appropriate.

Subject: Colposcope, root word?

The doc is a gyn oncologist.  The patient has a tumor in the rectovaginal mucosa and he says "On rectovaginal exam, this lesion did protrude into the left para-colpus."  Stedman's shows colpo- as having to do with the vagina, as we know, but I find no root word such as "colpos" or "colpus."  How would you type this?
