[O] using variables in org text

Hi

I have defined a variable as follow

#+property: var  DC="/home/rkrug/tmp/CLUSTER"

and I am using this path quite often in source blocks (works nicely as
expected) but also in org directly, e.g.

* DC path is $DC$
  The DC path $DC$ is pointing to a directory.

Is it possible to use the variable DC in the text as well, so that
$DC$ is replaced with the value of the variable DC as defined above?
In other words: how can I tell org that on export, $DC$ stands for the
value of the variable DC?

Cheers,

Rainer

PS: I know that $...$ is for LaTeX math mode
