Common Abbrevations
A member asked me to post the key to some common abbreviations we use when discussing Wegs. I figure we should start a thread dedicated to them, and maybe Andrew can make it a Sticky for other members to find it easily.
I'll start a few:
Ctx = cyclophosphamide/ cytoxan
Mtx = methotrexate
Rtx = rituximab/ rituxan
SS= subglottal stenosis
Dx = diagnosis
ESR/ SED = Sed rate/ Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate
CRP = C-reactive protein
WBC= white blood cell
RBC = red blood cell
BUN = blood urea nitrogen
RF= rheumatoid factor
RA = rheumatoid arthritis
AI = autoimmune
UA= urinalysis
US = ultrasound
