TAC evolutivo

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Medical Report
Hi, any help with this term would be appreciated. It appears in a medical report as follows:

EVOLUCIÓN:
Satisfactoria con tratamiento sintomático mediante reposo, dieta absoluta, sueroterapia, cobertura antibiótíca, analgésicos antiinflamatorios y protectores gástricos desapareciendo el dolor normalizando la analítica sanguínea, solo elevados los factores de inflamación con leucocitos en lo normal, y con TAC evolutivo del XX.XX a la mejoría por lo que se le da de alta para control ambulatorio

? CAT Scan
Proposed translations (English)
2 +4 follow-up CAT scan

Discussion

Caveat Spanish often uses these words ("evolución/evolutivo"...) to describe progress or development, but "evolution" is rarely the best option when translating into English. As in this case, where it means "follow-up".
