Answer:

The doctor's notes will refer to bone breakage with the abbreviation FRX

Step-by-step explanation:

Bone fractures (abbreviated FRX) occur when there is a partial or complete break in the bone. In the most severe cases, the bone can break into several pieces. This is due to the result of a high strength impact, or medical conditions that weaken the bones, such as osteoporosis or bone cancer.

To diagnose a fracture radiographic images are often used to confirm the diagnosis, a CT scan or magnetic resonance imaging.
