I have experience with hematology/oncology but not radiation oncology.  Is it a difficult jump from one to the other?  Broad learning curve?  Any info would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

however, without a list of clinics in the area MTs have no way of knowing if it just a general term or the actual name. I always capitalize to be on the safe side, have not been told not to yet.

Yep, it is a clinic report and the clinic does not want abbreviations spelled out.  In samples of their reports I was given h.s. was never spelled out, however, I could not find one that stated q.h.s. so I was unsure of the space.  Thanks for your help.

New to pain clinic tx - does this sound right.
Subject: New to pain clinic tx - does this sound right.

The examination of the cervical spine showed limited extension, which is painful, as well as limited lateral rotation, which is also painful. Flexion is very limited due to pain.

s/l Axillary is positive at approximately C5 on the right in the cervical paraspinous region.

It isn't very clear and really sounds more like axilony (does not s/l he's saying axial nerve). Axillary is the only thing that makes sense to me. Does anyone know if there's another possibility? Thanks :)

Pelvic pain clinic today
Subject: Pelvic pain clinic today

Hello all!  I have been asked to fill if for a pelvic pain clinic this week so this might not be the last time I'll have to ask for help since I'm not used to this terminology!


Here is the question - on an endometrial biopsy:


Cervix ___ with tenaculum.  Swabbed with Betadine.  Sounded to the depths of 10 centimeters.  Good specimen obtained.


 


At first I though he was saying "washed" but then looked up tenaculum and that appears to be a scissor-type instrument that is used for stretching so I don't think that is the right word.  Thanks for the help!

you give to everyone on this board, but especially for always taking the time to provide links.  I rarely come to ask for help, but I ALWAYS open up your responses and copy the links.....which, of course, makes it easier for me not to have to ask for help.  I swear, through you I have learned so much and wanted you to know how appreciated you are for going that extra mile and providing the resources of your knowledge.  You are a Godsend to all of us here and I know I speak for many when I say, "Thank you!"
