Not actually a translation I doubt if I could make an entry into the KudoZ glossary that is not actually a translation.. (same of the CRT)

Acronyms in general The problem with Polish medical community is - they love to use borrowed terms, so if there's a perfectly good English acronym - why bother inventing a new one? There's a really limited number of common English medical acronyms which have Polish counterparts that are actually used (OUN for CNS is one I can think of).

Acronym I'd be more interested in anything like a working Polish acronym; I know WKD is the rail, but anything else, like IKD?
