A member asked:
What does the term "interval" mean in this context. report says "appears to be some interval bony consolidation of bilat l5 pars defects"?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Interval": The use of the term "interval" in that context usually implies that it's a finding that was not present on a preceding Xray of the area. It wasn't there before and now it is.
