| unilateral | <anatomy> Affecting only one side. Origin: L. Latus = side (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| unilateral anaesthesia | <neurology> The inability to feel touches (tactile sensations) on one side of the body. (09 Oct 1997) |
| unilateral hemianopia | Uniocular hemianopia, loss of sight in one-half of the visual field of one eye only. (05 Mar 2000) |
| unilateral hermaphroditism | Hermaphroditism in which the doubling of sex characteristics occurs on one side only: ovotestis on one side and either ovary or testis on the other. (05 Mar 2000) |
| unilateral hyperlucent lung | Chronic bronchiolitis obliterans predominating on one side. See: unilateral lobar emphysema. (05 Mar 2000) |
| unilateral large kidney | <radiology> Multifocal: xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP), malakoplakia, multicystic dysplastic kidney Cf: other urographic patterns smooth kidney: renal vein thrombosis, acute arterial infarction, obstructive uropathy, acute bacterial nephritis, compensatory hypertrophy, duplicated pelvocalyceal system Cf: other urographic patterns multifocal: solid neoplastic mass, malignant, adenocarcinoma, adult nephroblastoma, invasive transitional cell carcinoma, sarcoma, metastasis, benign, hamartoma, adenoma, mesenchymal tumour cystic mass, simple cyst, focal hydronephrosis, multilocular cystic nephroma, arteriovenous malformation Cf: other urographic patterns (12 Dec 1998) |
| unilateral lobar emphysema | A state in which the roentgenographic density of one lung (or one lobe) is markedly less than the density of the other(s) because of the presence of air trapped during expiration. Synonym: Macleod's syndrome, Swyer-James syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| unilateral rib notching | <radiology> Aortic coarctation, proximal to left subclavian artery most likely to be right, anomalous right subclavian artery most likely to be left, subclavian artery stenosis / atresia, most likely to be IPSIlateral, Blalock-Taussig shunt, anastamosis of subclavian artery to pulmonary artery, for Tetralogy of Fallot, most likely to be IPSIlateral (12 Dec 1998) |
| unilateral small kidney | <radiology> Scarred: reflux nephropathy, lobar infarction Cf: other urographic patterns smooth kidney: ischemia due to focal arterial disease, chronic infarction, radiation nephritis, congenital hypoplasia, post-obstructive atrophy, post-inflammatory atrophy, reflux atrophy Cf: other urographic patterns (12 Dec 1998) |
| real focus | The point of meeting of convergent rays. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ghon's focus | Calcification seen in pulmonary parenchyma (usually mid-lung area) and hilar nodes resulting from earlier, usually childhood, infection with tuberculosis. Synonym: Ghon's complex, Ghon's focus, Ghon's primary lesion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| virtual focus | The point from which divergent rays seem to proceed, or that at which they would meet if prolonged backward. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mink cell focus-inducing viruses | Murine leukaemia viruses discovered in 1976 by hartley, wolford, old, and rowe and so named because the viruses originally isolated had the capacity to transform cell foci in mink cell cultures. Mcf viruses are generated in a multi-step process by recombination with other viral types including akr, friend, moloney, and rauscher. (12 Dec 1998) |
| plasma focus | <radiobiology> The Plasma Focus is another device which depends on the pinch effect. Possible applications include both fusion and plasma propulsion, as well as other plasma research. In essence the plasma focus is generated by discharge of a current across the ends of two coaxial insulated conducting pipes. The Plasma Focus caused a huge stir when they generated copious neutrons, until it was discovered that the source of the neutrons was knockoffs from deuterium due to pinch accelerated electrons or ions. Plasma focus is sort of a point version of the Zpinch. (09 Oct 1997) |
| condenser, variable-focus | <microscopy> Essentially an Abbe condenser in which the upper lens element is fixed and the lower movable. The lower lens may be used to focus the illumination between the elements so that it emerges from the stationary lens as a large diameter parallel bundle. The field of low-power objectives may thus be filled without removing the top element. at the opposite extreme it can be adjusted to have a numerical aperture as high as 1.3. See: illumination, critical. (05 Aug 1998) |
