i've never really looked it up, but the docs say it so often i give it to them.  my guess is that edema would create a gas in the soft tissues.  or, they say something thing interosseous gas ---  just my guess, but it's frequently dictated on my radiology reports.

It usually takes me twice the time to transcribe the work.  If the doc is easy and you can go right from one template/document to the next, it should only take you like 4 hours at the most.  10-12 hours is an awful long time.  What kind of interruptions are you getting.

how to type out Type I Aortic aneurysm

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.

I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN.  Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading.  Hope that helps!
