Medical (general)
CT of abdomen
Aumento de la densidad en el lecho quirúrgico del colon, que podría corresponder a cambios cicatriciales postcirugía, aunque debe descartarse origen infiltrativo a nivel de la pared del antro.
Any ideas for this? Source of infiltrate must be identified? (I understand descartarse is rule out, but how does it fit with this context?
Thanks :)

(tumour) infilitration should be ruled out
This means that the CT image shows probable post-op scarring, although this could be confused with malignant infiltration, i.e. has the tumour spread to / infiltrated the antrum.

infiltrative origin needs to be ruled out
Or similar phrasing with "yet", "still"... and other synonyms of "origin" (causes, disease...)
"Origen infiltrativo" refers to the possible cause of the density increase, and needs to be ruled out before they can conclude it's a post-surgical consequence.
Please see this search using "neoplastic" instead of "infiltrative" (just because it's a more common word): http://www.google.it/search?num=20&hl=it&newwindow=1&q="neop...
And "infiltrative cause": http://www.google.it/search?num=20&hl=it&newwindow=1&q="infi...
