You will find that in Danish medical dictation, the doctor will refer to an area by stating "svarende til" (sv.t.). This term is not used in English medical dictation. Most often the words "of" or "in" or "to" are used, depending on the text.

Usually it means "equal/equivalent to", but in this context I would go with something similar to "consisting of".
Good luck.
