French term

T.O.G.D post-opératoire

French to English Medical Medical (general) Post operative monitoring
This means transit oeso-gastro-duodenale in French, and obviously the same in English, but I was wondering whether there is an equivalent English abbreviation? All the ones that I have tried so far do not get many or any hits on various search engines. Here it has been used in the context of a clinical record book for patients undergiong gastric ring surgery. Thankyou for your help!

but I guess we talking more about transit than just teh simply wray, - i.e; barium study of fluoroscopy, so I wanted to try and put transit in there somewhere! A little more conext: This is in the Information Operatoire section: "TOGD Pot-operatoire: oui / Non
Normal / anomalie
si anomalie pr�cisez....." this is starting to make my head spin, I think its time to go to bed!!

I would rather use "UGI Xray" to make it short
Non-ProZ.com Apr 13, 2004:
yes but that's great guys thanks! But...the question was is there an equivalent commonly used abbreviation - i.e; if I put OGDT in this clinical record card, will they know what I'm talking about, or should I spell it out?

Oeso-gastro-duodenal transit

This is a post-surgery exam.
Basically same thing in French and Englis, only the place of transit changes.

You can use an abbreviation; just include a footnote so you are sure that whoever will read the manual will know what you are talking about

Post-operative X-ray test for upper GI reflux

Chere Josephine,
I believe there is no equivalent abbreviation for TOGD in English. Basically the post-op TOGD is a test looking for a reflux of barium in the esophagus with the patient in Trendelenburg position.
I would translate it as "Post-operative X-ray test for upper GI reflux: positive/negative".
