Medical - Linguistics / medical paper | | English term or phrase: subsequently | Subsequently distant metastases in bilateral axillary lymph nodes were diagnosed, a palliative radiotherapy was performed.
Is this the right adverb? I believe "subsequently" is used when something is actively performed, not discovered by chance.
Any alternatives: "later" ?
Thanks for any suggestions |

| | subsequent to... | Explanation:
My reading of this very sloppy English:
Subsequently distant metastases in bilateral axillary lymph nodes were diagnosed, a palliative radiotherapy was performed.
-->
Subsequent to the diagnosis of distant ... nodes, a palliative ... performed.
If you want or need to keep the original sentence structure, along the lines suggested by Arcoiris, then:
Subsequently*,* distant metastases in bilateral axillary lymph nodes were diagnosed *and * palliative radiotherapy was performed. |
