GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:in corso di definizione

Italian term or phrase: in corso di definizione
This phrase appears in a report about a patient hospitalized for an ischemic stroke (occluded internal carotid and middle cerebral arteries). This is actually not an anatomical term, but I'm having trouble fitting it into the rest of the sentence:

"Sfumata alterazione ipodensa, parzialmente coinvolgente anche i nuclei profondi da questo lato, quale esito *in corso di definizione* del noto evento ischemico.

I see that we have a previous question about this phrase in KudoZ, but in a legal context ... I can't see how it would help me in this situation.

How do I translate this phrase here?

Thanks for your help.

Explanation:
It spoecifically refers to the outcome so I think it means the details are being investigated and ascertained, probably to know the exact extent of the damage.
