Medical - Medical: Cardiology / Röntgenbefund
German term or phrase: Randwinkelausrundungen
Immer noch derselbe Arztbericht ueber den Patienten mit dekompensierter Herzinsuffizienz. Der Roentgenbefund lautet (u.a.):

Betont zentrale Gefaessstrukturen, Randwinkelausrundungen bds."

Ist das der costophrenic angle, von dem im Februar 2008 schon einmal die Rede war? In dem Fall waere es "costrophrenic angle rounded on both sides"?

Danke fuer Eure Hilfe!
