Edgren-Vaino

English translation: Edgren-Vaino sign [and footnote]

14:17 Nov 13, 2000
German to English translations [PRO]
Medical
German term or phrase: Edgren-Vaino
Mentioned in a spine x-ray report. I can't find any reference to this at in dictionnaries and searches. The only context I have is 'Edgren-Vaino Zeichen Th L2/L1.'
English translation:Edgren-Vaino sign [and footnote]
Explanation:
Not much help, I'm afraid, if any: This sign is NOT listed among the lengthy list of "signs" in Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary (English), nor are the individual names listed as a separate entry. Same results in Reuter & Reuter Medizinisches Wörterbuch and in Bunjes W. der Medizin u. Pharmazeutik (both German-English). Furthermore, no meaningful hits -- in various combinations -- on AltaVista or Google. -- For what it's worth, the names are Scandinavian (Swedish & Finnish).
