Norwegian term or phrase: ekspansivitet
CT caput kontroll viste lett redusert ekspansivitet i høyresidig mediainfarkt, ingen blødning av betydning tilkommet.

Hva mener de med "redusert ekspansivitet i mediainfarkt"?

English translation:expansion
Explanation:
It means that the medial infarct is smaller or less expansive than it was on the previous CT.

From the reference below: In addition, the change in lesion volume during the first 24 hours is more likely to reflect expansion of the ischemic region and less likely to reflect the formation of potentially reversible cerebral edema, and most clinical stroke trials now initiate treatment very early after stroke onset.
