Or a quick ultrasound? Could have just taken a "quick" informal look if EDC was questionable, as opposed to a formal ultrasound being performed later in the pregnancy.

I got the answer from the MTSO. It's "deck ultrasound" as in bedside ultrasound.

SHEESH!

Thanks for letting us know. New one for today "deck ultrasound." Figured it was a quick bedside one, didn't realize it had a technical name.
