Guest guest Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 I could only find the word periosteal also. I found that word in both radiology and orthopedic word books. I guess the doc swallowed a bit of that word. Hospital work/infectious disease/GI-12 years On Mon, 20 May 2002 02:21:31 EDT Transcribeit2@... writes: > Dictating x-ray report on hand.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2002 Report Share Posted May 20, 2002 Found this one hit on Google. Hope it helps. http://www.moffitt.usf.edu/pubs/ccj/v6n3/dept7.htm .. Periosteal: A dense, thick, convex to elliptical periosteal response suggests a benign irritative lesion (eg, osteoid osteoma, infection, trauma). The triangular cuff, or " Codman's triangle, " indicates rapid growth rate, and biopsy is mandatory. The " onion-skinning " (multiple parallel, thin submillimeter periosteal lines) often contains no tumor and may result from intermittent and sequential intramedullary tumor growth/infarction events and host responses. The " sunburst " (spiculated, wavy, perpendicular, Sharpey 's fibers) results from rapid, continuous lifting and periosteal stretching. Quixote Need s/l help, please > Dictating x-ray report on hand.
