Searches (of a person) mapped to registro, cacheo, and cateo, in number-of-hits-on-the-internet order. I wasn't looking for room searches, and the like.
While I was searching for the answers I gave, I noticed that someone compared esculcar to 'to frisk'. So, that seems like a synonym of registro corporal, but I didn't think it belonged in the document you're translating. |

my usage
revisión: a medical/technical check "revisión médica", "revisión deportiva", "revisión auditiva", "revisión del corazón" "reivisión anual", "revisión del motor", "revisión de la conexión a internet" registro: search warrant (also to register) "registro policial" "registro de cocaína" "registro previo" "registro de útiles" (also "registro de patentes", "registro de hotel") cacheo corporal: a search in the body of a person. Usually in airports. It's a speed checking, only touching ad not so intensive as "un registro" Cateo corporal: never heard. You can use "catar" as "search", but it's not so common as in America. Here, "catear" means "not to pass a subject/exam" saludos
