| dentinal canals | Minute, wavy, branching tubes or canals in the dentin; they contain the long cytoplasmic processes of odontoblasts and extend radially from the pulp to the dentoenamel junction. Synonym: dental tubules, dentinal canals, dentinal tubules, tubuli dentales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dentinal fluid | The lymph or fluid of dentin. It is a transudate of extracellular fluid, mainly cytoplasm of odontoblastic processes, from the dental pulp via the dentinal tubules. It is also called dental lymph. (12 Dec 1998) |

| dentinal tubules | Minute, wavy, branching tubes or canals in the dentin; they contain the long cytoplasmic processes of odontoblasts and extend radially from the pulp to the dentoenamel junction. Synonym: dental tubules, dentinal canals, dentinal tubules, tubuli dentales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| artery of pulp | The first section of a penicillus of the spleen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axial walls of the pulp chambers | The wall's parallel with the long axis of a tooth: the mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual wall's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radicular pulp | That part of the dental pulp contained within the apical or root portion of the tooth. Synonym: pulpa radicularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral pulp | The soft fibrocartilage central portion of the intervertebral disk; regarded as a derivative of the notochord. Synonym: gelatinous nucleus, nucleus gelatinosus, vertebral pulp. (05 Mar 2000) |
| red pulp | Splenic pulp seen grossly as a reddish brown substance, due to its abundance of red blood cells, consisting of splenic sinuses and the tissue intervening between them (splenic cords). (05 Mar 2000) |
| red pulp cords | The tissue occurring between the venous sinuses in the spleen. Synonym: Billroth's cords, red pulp cords. (05 Mar 2000) |
