Medical - Medical: Cardiology
German term or phrase: spornartige Rf
In a medical cardiology report. The context is as follows:

HS: Sklerose, **spornartige Rf,** DD: membranöse Stenose

HS = Main stem stenosis.

Any ideas about spornartige Rf?

Thanks in advance!

spur-like indentation
Explanation:
I agree with all previous contibutors that RF = Raumforderung. That still leaves the question how to translate 'Raumforderung' in this particular context. The usual 'mass' won't work here, IMO. How about a free translation such as "spur-like" or "wedge-like indentation"?

(Unfortunately, I have no idea what a "spornartige Raumforderung" might be in cardiology, viz at the coronary arteries, in medical terms.)

spur-like lesion


Explanation:
I'd use lesion in this case.

It's neutral enough to mean almost anything. Always a good choice!

Reference: kardiale Raumforderungen

Reference information:
Primäre Herztumoren sind mit einer Inzidenz von ca. 0,1% selten. Drei Viertel der primären Herztumoren sind benigne, ein Viertel ist maligne. Die Hälfte der benignen Tumoren stellen die Myxome, die andere Hälfte umfasst vor allem Lipome, Fibrome, Rhabdomyome und Hämangiome. Zu den malignen Tumoren gehören Angiosarkome, Rhabdomyome, Lymphosarkome und das maligne fibröse Histiozytom. Sekundäre Tumoren (Metastasen) sind 20–40 mal häufiger als primäre Tumoren des Herzens. Die MRT ist Methode der 1. Wahl zur Abklärung einer Raumforderung des Herzens. Sie ist bezüglich der Lokalisationsdiagnostik, der Beurteilung der Ausdehnung von Raumforderungen, einer evtl. Infiltration von Umgebungsstrukturen, sowie der Gewebecharakterisierung und Bestimmung der Herzfunktion die Methode der größten Genauigkeit. Neben einem systematischen Überblick über Herztumoren und tumorähnliche Raumforderungen des Herzens werden in diesem RK geeignete MRT-Untersuchungsprotokolle und typische MRT-Befunde vorgestellt.
