| Salter-Harris classification of epiphysial plate injuries | The classification of epiphysial plate injuries into five groups (I to V), according to the pattern of damage to epiphysis, physis, and/or metaphysis; the classification correlates with different prognoses regarding the effects of the injury on subsequent growth and subsequent deformity of the epiphysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Salter-Harris fracture | A classification of fractures (1-5) that occur around or through an epiphyseal plate (growth plate). (27 Sep 1997) |
| salter-harris fractures | <radiology> Classification of epiphyseal fractures, I pure epiphyseal separation if non-displaced, joint effusion may be only sign, II metaphyseal fracture and epiphyseal separation, III epiphyseal fracture, IV vertically oriented fracture through epiphysis and metaphysis, V crush injury of epiphysis (not detected acutely), most common: type II, type I (best) may lead to type V (worst), seen in kiddies before the physes close (12 Dec 1998) |

| absorption lines | The dark line's in the solar spectrum due to absorption by the solar and the earth's atmosphere; the phenomenon occurs because rays passing from an incandescent body through a colder medium are absorbed by elements in that medium. (05 Mar 2000) |

| amphotropic packaging cell lines | <cell culture, molecular biology> Clonal entities that express genes or act as viral vectors that infect cell lines to stably infect and then express genes of choice. Usually an amphotropic virus. (04 Nov 1997) |
| Baillarger's lines | Two laminae of white fibres that course parallel to the surface of the cerebral cortex and are visible as outer and inner line's in sections cut perpendicular to the surface; the line of Gennari in the calcarine cortex represents the outer of these lines. Synonym: Baillarger's bands. (05 Mar 2000) |
