French term or phrase: L cm, I cm, P cm, V cm³
Hello Colleagues,

These come from a thyroid ultrasound report.

They are the headers in a table to be translated from French regarding measurements of the thyroid lobes and isthmus.

I presume that L means longueur and V is of course the volume. But I do not know what I and P refer to. They should be the transverse diameter/width and the AP or depth measurement, but the exact French terms elude me.

Thanks for your help.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks. Yes, I think I may have been a typo for l (largeur). Profondeur sounds odd to me as an anglophone in this context, but I accept that it is the correct term here.
