This sure sounds like paralyze, but I'm not sure that's correct. Kinda' makes sense, as in suspended, but then again.....maybe I've got the word totally wrong!

I'm doing a report where iodine seeds are being placed for prostate cancer, and the ESL says, "the total was 22.9 Madam Curies of iodine." Maybe this is her way of being cute, but I don't think so because she sounds professional otherwise. She's a very good dictator and clear speaking too. Am I way off base thinking no way could Madam Curie be the correct term here? I'm thinking this has to be millicuries and should be transcribed as mCI. Maybe she'd think this was the appropriate abbreviation for Madam Curie too, who knows? Maybe I'm totally wrong, but I just don't think so!
