repérage

French to English Medical Medical (general) Abdomen ultrasound
Hi,

This patient is undergoing an abdomen ultrasound prior to an ascitic tap

I have "repérage en vue d'une ponction d'ascite" which I believe is either "localization" or mapping".
I then have "repérage cutané a été mis en place": could this be "marking"?

This is for the US market.

Thanks

Joanna

The above definition is literal though I can see why another might choose 'marking' in a medical or aesthetic setting.
'en vue d'une ponction' - 'in view of a puncture'.
Example sentence:

repérage cutané a été mis en place

skin location was set in place
