TechnicalRegister
A condition in which small pouches form in the wall of the colon and may cause pain or bleeding.
The CT showed diverticular disease with an acute abscess, so intravenous antibiotics were started.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
