Estoy buscando el término que mejor se ajuste al contexto. Estoy conscient que conglomerado puede traducirse como conglomerate y también mass.

Discussion

Muriel Vasconcellos Nov 3, 2013:
Interpreting the text The way I read the sentence, "subcarinales y parahiliares" modifies "adenopatías" and there should be a comma before "midiendo" (the subject of which is "conglomerado"). Based on this interpretation, I don't see any reason not to use 'mass' as a translation - or 'clumped mass'.

mass

In this case "parahilar mass"

What are the units of 200m though? Usually you'd see something like 5* 4 cm.
Surely not 20 cm^2 or mm^2 though??

Occasionally it's linear, but even 200 mm is very big.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Joseph Tein : Hi Donal. I think the word "mass" will work (see my own answer) but not "parahilar mass" ... rather, I think it's the mass of all the lymph nodes conglomerated/massed together.

Thanks Joseph. I think my parsing is suspect. Do you know what the units are, "gm"?
agree Muriel Vasconcellos : The way I read it, "parahilar" is referring to the adenopathy. You could also say 'clumped mass'. There should be a comma in the original text.

Thanks Muriel. I hadn't thought of clumped mass.
agree Anne Patricia : I would say "total mass" ;)

I would translate it this way so that conglomerado fits more smoothly into the context.

conglomeration

This seems to be the standard term. I'm including a link to a previous KudoZ question asked by me ... it's Italian>English, but the answer given by this expert physician is in English. (It also shows that "mass" is another option.)

http://www.proz.com/kudoz/italian_to_english/medical_general...

Examples:

"There was an associated conglomeration of lymph nodes in the pretracheal, precarinal, and subcarinal regions and encasement of the right pulmonary artery ..."

"In nearly every case multiple lymph nodes are involved which result in conglomeration of the enlarged lymph nodes. "

Thank you, Jason: I appreciate your confirmation. :)
disagree Muriel Vasconcellos : Your "cluster" comes from an article on pharmacy technicians (http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/5587289) and it is being used in a statistical sense. It has nothing to do with the lungs or the chest. Follow your link and you will see the problem.
