vermehrter LK-Besatz
lymph node proliferation


Explanation:
It would help to know whether the report is a clinical or a radiological finding.

Is there a punctuation mark missing between 'Halsgefäße' and 'vermehrter LK-Besatz' ?

@ Barbara Greenwood:
Thanks for the clarification. I'm not sure whether an MRI would be able to show lymph node proliferation. To be on the safer side, I would suggest
lymph node enlargement [or: enlarged lymph nodes]
http://shortify.com/10646


Btw, is there a punctuation mark missing between 'Halsgefäße' and 'vermehrter LK-Besatz' ?


Example sentence(s):
  • Differential diagnosis of nodular lymph node proliferation

Asker: This is in the summary section of an MR tomography. Does that clarify at all? Thank you!

Asker: Sorry I didn't respond to that question. There is no missing punctuation from the sentence in the report. Thank you for your help.
