Reference:
DD
not knowing what the medical examination is about, our suggestions are bound to be guess work only. let me suggest you consult the online dict.cc It offers about 5 or 6 possibilities, two of which are: differential diagnosis and diastolic dysfunction

Lirka
: not in this context; DD is a standard abbreviation for "differential diagnosis" but it is clear that it cannot be followed by a date
