| collateral circulation | Compensatory circulation carried on through secondary channels after obstruction of the principal vessel supplying the part. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|
| assisted circulation | Pumping that aids the natural activity of the heart. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| blood circulation | The course of the blood from the heart through the arteries, capillaries, and veins back again to the heart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blood circulation time | Determination of the shortest time interval between the injection of a substance in the vein and its arrival at some distant site in sufficient concentration to produce a recognizable end result. It represents approximately the inverse of the average velocity of blood flow between two points. (12 Dec 1998) |
| capillary circulation | The course of the blood through the capillaries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral artery | <anatomy, artery> The anterior terminal branch of the profunda brachii, anastomosing with the radial recurrent, forming part of the articular network of the elbow. Synonym: arteria collateralis radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral ligament | The ligament that connects the lateral epicondyle of the humerus with the annular ligament of the radius. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale radiale, lateral ligament of elbow, radial collateral ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral ligament of elbow | The ligament that connects the lateral epicondyle of the humerus with the annular ligament of the radius. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale radiale, lateral ligament of elbow, radial collateral ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial collateral ligament of wrist | The ligament that extends distally from the styloid process of the radius to the carpal bones. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale carpi radiale, external collateral ligament of wrist, lateral ligament of wrist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial collateral | <anatomy> A strong ligament which connects the femur to the tibia, stabilising the inner aspect of the knee joint. (27 Sep 1997) |
| medial collateral ligament, knee | A broad, flat, longitudinal band on the medial side of the knee joint. It is attached superiorly to the medial epicondyle of the femur, inferiorly to the medial surface of the body of the tibia, and in between to the medial meniscus. It is a frequent site of injury, particularly rupture and tear. (12 Dec 1998) |
| medial collateral ligament of elbow | The triangular ligament extending from the medial epicondyle of the humerus to the medial side of the coronoid process and olecranon of the ulna. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale ulnare, medial collateral ligament of elbow, ulnar collateral ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal circulation | The circulation of the blood through the vessels of the kidney. (12 Dec 1998) |
| respiratory circulation | The mechanisms of pulmonary circulation coordinated with the heart and systemic circulation. It involves the flow or interruption of the flow of blood to the lungs as it affects respiration. Pulmonary circulation, a circulatory concept, emphasizes the passage of blood from the right to the left heart through the lungs. Respiratory circulation coordinates this with heart action, systemic circulation, and breathing. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cerebrovascular circulation | The circulation of blood through the vessels of the brain. (12 Dec 1998) |
| greater circulation | The circulation of blood through the arteries, capillaries, and veins of the general system, from the left ventricle to the right atrium. Synonym: greater circulation. (05 Mar 2000) |
