Dutch term

knicking

Dutch to English Medical Medical (general)
In a coronary angiography, a vessel is described as having 'en kort knicking' and 'en korte knicking'
I can't find much for this word in Dutch, but am I right in thinking it might be to do with having bends/kinks?
If not, suggested translations would be appreciated too.

Thanks
