Va. Governor Pushes Tweaks to Controversial Ultrasound Bill


Gov. McDonnell: "No woman in Virginia will have to undergo a transvaginal ultrasound involuntarily."



Scientists and professionals are prone to verbalize nouns, and even adjectives. A few years back, “necropsy” and “biopsy” were nouns only; nowadays, due to popular demand, no doubt, they are also verbs. “Ultrasound,” “microchip,” and “aliquot” have not yet reached that status, so it is still incorrect to ultrasound or microchip a dog, or aliquot a solution.


transvaginal
Through the vagina.


necropsy

plural nec·rop·sies

autopsy 1; especially : an autopsy performed on an animal
