Danish term or phrase: en lidt kranielt herfor / en dorsalt herfor
Hi there,

I am translating a medical description text about a prostate cancer patient who has undergone PET scanning. I am wondering if I understand the following sentence right, particularly the part "en lidt kranielt herfor ... en dorsalt herfor":

PET-skanning af hals, thorax og abdomen viser fokalt øget PSMA-optagelse i vesikula seminalis sin/prostatarest og i en pararektal lymfeknude på venstre side og en lidt kranielt herfor på højre side samt i en lymfeknude ventralt for delingen af iliaca communis dxt og en dorsalt herfor.

My best translation so far: PET scan of the throat, thorax and abdomen shows focally increased PSMA uptake in vesicula seminalis sin/residual prostate tissue and in a pararectal lymph node on the left side and one located a little cranially on the right side, as well as in a lymph node ventral to the division of iliaca communis dxt and one located dorsally.

Any comments that can help me understand the sentence better are welcome. Thank you!
