Norwegian medical exam (spinal column et al)
Hei!
I understand the above term (the patient is undergoing a general medical exam, including the spinal column, in view of back/neurological pains), but can't find an equivalent English term - does anyone have any ideas? Or maybe pointers would be enough?
MP2 is mentioned, is this some kind of measurement?
If more context is needed, just shout.
Takk!
Alison.
