    If you don't have Stedman's Medical & Surgical Equipment Words book you should get it. This book is amazing. Pretty much any piece of medical/surgical equipment is in there. It is worth its weight in gold. If your company doesn't offer discounted books, you can purchase it a Amazon.com either new or used, and they have great used book. I bought my entire collection of Stedman's words book used. All of them are in at least good condition.

    Radiology
    Subject: Radiology

    Have a question I need help with.  I work in a family practice clinic.  Our x-rays are read by a hospital radiologist and transcribed at the hospital.  Perhaps I am a bit anal about this but there is a term that the hospital transcriptionist uses over and over on head CT, cervical spine x-rays - the term is:  Scobi structures??  I cannot find scobi anywhere in my reference material.  Is anyone familiar with that term?  I am thinking more along the lines of skull base structures are normal.  I appreciate your input.  Deb

    Subject: radiology

    Thanks everyone for replying. I had x-ray tech talk to the radiologist and he is saying skull base structures. Now how to tactfully tell the hospital MT. She is not always open to any corrections. I think I will let the x-ray dept take care of it. Not everyone likes corrections. I definitely want someone to correct me if I am making a mistake so I do not continue to make the same mistakes over and over!
