But there is an update on this sm
Subject: But there is an update on this sm

The update is this:

Follow up (2 words) is the verb usage. The pt will follow up in the office next week.

Followup (1 word) as in The pt is here for followup.

Follow-up is when it proceeds a noun, like the compound modifier rule. The pt is here for her follow-up appointment.

It was news to me yesterday, but there it is.

There have been a couple of AAMT BOS2 addendums. They want to do away with q.d. and q.4h. now has to have a space after the q. so it is q. 4h. Pain in the neck all of this...

Update on motalakian..
Subject: Update on motalakian..

I found these on further searches:

Tangent screen exam
Automated perimetry exam
Goldmann visual field exam
Humphrey visual field exam

This is not an ESL dictator but I just bet "tularakian" and "motalakian" are some forms of the above visual field testing names that he has said so often that he just runs it all together. The dictation is gone now but I've bookmarked the above, maybe they will help someone else who gets this same strange-sounding garble. Thanks!

help on MRI of the head results
Subject: help on MRI of the head results

The patient had an MRI with gadolinium of the head.  I'm having some trouble understanding the results because this is unfamiliar to me.  She is a cancer patient with metastatic melanoma and the MRI was ordered due to severe vomiting and blurry vision.  He says the MRI "revealed no definite metastatic disease, significant [s/l hypotense? maybe hypodense or hypertensive?] [s/l mara signal?] of the cervical spine of unclear significance, heterogeneous [s/l coabnormality?], for which in matter of fact these cannot be excluded."  That last phrase sounds a little weird too, but I'm pretty sure that's what he says.  Any ideas?
