Medical - Medical (general) / Spinal cord injuries: Case descriptions
Spanish term or phrase: Imagen de insuflado en cuerpo de LI
Multiple files describe cases and go over criteria for the classification of spinal injuries. I'm assuming the above term means "___ image on L1 body" or "image of ___ on L1 body," but I'm stuck on the meaning of "insuflado." Any suggested translations that would fit in this context?

Image of expanded L1 vertebral body / expansion of L1 vertebral body
Explanation:
Having done a bit of research, I think the chosen answer to this fairly similar recent question, which I had doubts about at the time, was correct. It also concerned lumbar vertebrae:

imagen insuflada > no evidence of expansion

"Insuflado", I think, means "hueso insuflado", which means increased bone volume. This can be expressed as expansion.

"Los signos de consulta son: aumento de volumen (hueso insuflado) [...]"
http://escuela.med.puc.cl/publ/OrtopediaTraumatologia/Trau_S...

"En los signos radiológicos destaca una lesión metafisiaria [...] que expande (hueso insuflado), y adelgaza la cortical (lesión biológicamente activa)"
http://medi.usal.edu.ar/archivos/medi/otros/quistes.swf

"Review of the MRI shows some minor increased signal in the expanded L1 vertebral body on both T1 and T2 parasagittal images"
http://openi.nlm.nih.gov/detailedresult.php?img=1934928_256_...

"Lateral radiograph of dorsolumbar spine, (A) shows mild expansion of L1 vertebral body with coarse vertical striations (arrow)"

agree  Neil Ashby: ;@) Right place, right time // I would re-enter academia (assuming they'd have me) to prove that buses, and trains, indeed come in pairs. I have a lot of experience in that dept., not having a driving licence until I was 36!! [Or same project ;@) ]

  -> Cheers, Neil ;) And acknowledgements to Liz, of course. Isn't it strange how these things happen? It's like buses: you wait years for a question on "insuflado" and then two come along at once.
