Dutch term or phrase: Normale tramatekening
If 'trama' means marking, I am unsure of 'tekening'.
Could it be 'Normal marking picture'?
The report is of a RX-Thorax face/profiel.
Thank you for your help.

pattern and markings are syninymous, so using both would be redundant

In fact "normal lung markings" would be fine too.

Asker: No I hadn't, that is perfect, thank you Clair. I wonder if 'evolutieve letsels' could be 'progressive scarring'? Difficult to try to be creative in an exact science text...
