Medical - Medical: Instruments / Radiology report
Spanish term or phrase: punta
On a radiology report (PET-CT scan), in the findings section, there is the phrase:

"Reservorio en región pectoral derecha con punta en cava superior."

"Reservoir in the right pectoral region with tip in upper cava."

Is "tip" the correct terminology for "punta" in this case?

Thank you very much!
