The Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology is the society's official scientific journal. Readers know that each issue is filled with high caliber reporting that delivers the most timely medical, minimally-invasive, radiological, pathological and socioeconomic news related to the specialty.
I live in the United States, and I was wondering if medical personnel in other countries use the same shorthand symbols that we do. As examples: lower case c with a line over it means with; lower case s with a line over it means without, a triangle (chevron symbol) means change, etc.
Symbol given to nurse by doctors on prescriptions for patient. Asked Apr 18, 2009, 09:23 AM â 10 Answers. The medication prescription the doctor gave to my nurse to give to me on leaving the hospital has a sign, like a T with a dot over it. It has something to do with pills. Does anyone know exactly what this symbol means? Thanks
