The patient is actually in the clinic for hearing loss. This portion of the

assessment is the only mention of this x-ray abnormality:

ASSESSMENT:

1. Ringing in the ears.

2. CT of the thorax has been ordered as a follow-up for his chest x-ray that

mentioned some s/l obasities (or ovasities) that needed to be clarified and

to rule out any nodules.

Any ideas?

I think I might be inclined to see if you can hear " opacities, " with the

root word being opacity which means, (according to Stedman's electronic):

1. A lack of transparency; an opaque or nontransparent area.

2. On a radiograph, a more transparent area is interpreted as an opacity to

x-rays in the body.

3. Mental dullness.

Good luck,

Obasities!
