French term or phrase: masque d'os
Hello,

Under "condition of occurences" in a table entitled "risk analysis results" I have the following:

"Données manquantes dans le fichier DXA (pas d’analyse DMO effectué, pas de masque d’os, pas de ROI analysable, …)

Does anyone know what "masque d'os" means here?

Please help
Thank you!

DOS mask


Explanation:
Doesn't this have to do with computing? I notice a spelling error in "effectué" so maybe there are other mistakes, like "masque DOS" > "DOS mask"

Example sentence(s):
  • This mask is the same as the DOS mask for listing files
