| interlobular arteries of kidney | The branches of the interlobar arteries of the kidney passing outward through the cortex and supplying the glomeruli. Synonym: arteria interlobulares (renis). (05 Mar 2000) |

| interlobular duct | Any duct leading from a lobule of a gland and formed by the junction of the fine duct's draining the acini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interlobular ductules | Bile ductules occupying portal canals between hepatic lobules that open into the ductuli biliferi. Synonym: ductuli interlobulares. (05 Mar 2000) |

| interlobular pleurisy | Inflammation limited to the pleura in the sulci between the pulmonary lobes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interlobular septum | The connective tissue between pulmonary lobules, usually containing a vein and lymphatics; seen radiographically when thickened as a Kerley B line. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interlobular veins of kidney | They parallel the interlobular arteries and drain the peritubular capillary plexus, emptying into the arcuate veins. Synonym: venae interlobulares renis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interlobular veins of liver | The terminal branches of the portal vein that course in the portal canals between the conceptual liver lobules and empty into the liver sinusoids. Synonym: venae interlobulares hepatis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arterial capillary | A capillary opening from an arteriole or metarteriole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bile capillary | One of the intercellular channels, about 1 um or less in diameter, that occurs between liver cells forming the first portion of the bile system. Synonym: bile capillary. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blood capillary | A vessel whose wall consists of endothelium and its basement membrane; its diameter, when the capillary is open, is about 8 um; with the electron microscope, fenestrated capillary's and continuous capillary's are distinguished. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capillary | <anatomy> Any one of the minute vessels that connect the arterioles and venules, forming a network in nearly all parts of the body. Their walls act as semipermeable membranes for the interchange of various substances, including fluids, between the blood and tissue fluid. Synonym: vas capillare. Origin: L. Capillaris = hair like (16 Dec 1997) |
