| stereotactic | Precise positioning in three dimensional space. Refers to surgery or radiation therapy directed by various scanning devices. (16 Dec 1997) |
|---|---|
| stereotactic cordotomy | See: cordotomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stereotactic instrument | Stereotaxic instrument, an apparatus attached to the head, used to localise precisely an area in the brain by means of coordinates related to intracerebral structures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stereotactic needle biopsy | Biopsy done while breast is compressed under mammography. A series of pictures locate the lesion, and a radiologist enters information into a computer. The computer calculates information and positions a needle to remove the finding. A needle is inserted into the lump, and a piece of tissue is removed and sent to the lab for analysis. May be referred to as mammotest or core biopsy. (09 Oct 1997) |
| stereotactic radiosurgery | A radiation therapy technique that uses a large number of narrow, precisely aimed, highly focused beams of ionising radiation. The beams are aimed from many directions circling the head and meet at a specific point. (16 Dec 1997) |
| stereotactic surgery | A precise method of destroying deep-seated brain structures located by use of three-dimensional coordinates. Synonym: stereoencephalotomy, stereotactic surgery, stereotaxic surgery, stereotaxis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Balkan frame | An overhead frame, supported on uprights attached to the bedposts or to a separate stand, from which a splinted limb is slung in the treatment of fracture or joint disease. Synonym: Balkan beam, Balkan splint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blocked reading frame | A sequence of DNA that cannot be translated into a viable protein; usually due to the interruption by one or more termination codons. Synonym: closed reading frame. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bradford frame | An oblong rectangular frame made of pipe, over which are stretched transversely two strips of canvas; permits trunk and lower extremities of a bed-ridden patient to move as a unit. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reading frame | One of the three possible ways of reading a nucleotide sequence. As the genetic code is read in nonoverlapping triplets (codons) there are three possible ways of translating a sequence of nucleotides into a protein, each with a different starting point. For example: given the nucleotide sequence: AGCAGCAGC, the three reading frames are: AGC AGC AGC, GCA GCA, CAG CAG. (18 Nov 1997) |
| reading frame, open | An open reading frame in DNA has no termination codon, no signal to stop reading the nucleotide sequence, and so may be translated into protein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| closed reading frame | A sequence of DNA that cannot be translated into a viable protein; usually due to the interruption by one or more termination codons. Synonym: closed reading frame. (05 Mar 2000) |
| picture frame vertebra | Radiographically diminished density of trabecular bone with relative preservation of the cortex, a sign of osteopenia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Whitman's frame | A frame similar to the Bradford frame, but with curved sides. (05 Mar 2000) |
| space frame | Three-dimensional optical bench that holds laser components stable from vibrational and thermal excursions. (09 Oct 1997) |
