Georgian term or phrase: ბიჯი
I would like to know what is the best way to translate this term from Georgian into American English. It's the translation of a medical report. It's a magnetic resonance tomography of a patient with a spinal cord injury.

Explanation:
"ბიჯი" can also refer to "distance" or "length" when speaking in the context of DNA structure. The 3,4 nanometer helical turn on a DNA molecule which contains 10 nitrogenous bases is referred to in this way.

Made a few mistakes in the example sentence:

Forgot to add "/b>" at the end, and its "სპირალის" not "პირალის".

Example sentence(s):
  • უოტსონ-კრიკის დნმ-ის მოდელში 10 აზოტოვანი ფუძე შეადგენს პირალის ერთ სრულს ბრუნს - 3,4 ნმ-იანი <b>ბიჯით<
