| vesico-ureteric reflux | <nephrology, urology> A condition where the chronic backup of urine into a kidney results in kidney damage. Urine is forced out of the bladder and back toward kidney and bilateral hydronephrosis is a common finding. This condition occurs most commonly in children who have congenital abnormalities of the urinary tract. Symptoms include back pain, flank, pain, abdominal pain, urinary frequency or urgency and blood in the urine. Other symptoms include nausea, fever and chills, most often indicating a kidney infection has occurred. Diagnosis is frequently confirmed by voiding cystourethrogram. Surgery is often required to correct the reflux of urine. (27 Sep 1997) |

| ureteric branches | Branches distributed to the ureter. Although not listed by Nomina Anatomica, ureteric branches also rise regularly from the 1) abdominal aorta, 2) common iliac artery, and 3) internal iliac artery. Ureteric branches from the inferior vesical artery are constant in occurrence and supply the terminal portion of the ureter. Synonym: rami ureterici, ureteral branches. (05 Mar 2000) |

| ureteric orifice | The opening of the ureter in the bladder, situated one at each lateral angle of the trigone; wide gaping of the ostium usually indicates vesicoureteral reflux. Synonym: ostium ureteris, orificium ureteris, ureteral meatus, ureteral opening. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ureteric pelvis | <anatomy> The area at the centre of the kidney. Urine collects here and is funneled into the ureter. (12 Dec 1998) |

| bridge | 1. To build a bridge or bridges on or over; as, to bridge a river. "Their simple engineering bridged with felled trees the streams which could not be forded." (Palfrey) 2. To open or make a passage, as by a bridge. "Xerxes . . . Over Hellespont Bridging his way, Europe with Asia joined." (Milton) 3. To find a way of getting over, as a difficulty; generally with over.

The small arch or bar at right angles to the strings of a violin, guitar, etc, serving of raise them and transmit their vibrations to the body of the instrument. 4. <physics> A device to measure the resistance of a wire or other conductor forming part of an electric circuit. 5. A low wall or vertical partition in the fire chamber of a furnace, for deflecting flame, etc.; usually called a bridge wall. Aqueduct bridge. See Aqueduct. Asses' bridge, Bascule bridge, Bateau bridge. See Ass, Bascule, Bateau.

Flying bridge, a temporary bridge suspended or floating, as for the passage of armies; also, a floating structure connected by a cable with an anchor or pier up stream, and made to pass from bank to bank by the action of the current or other means. Girder bridge or Truss bridge, a bridge formed by girders, or by trusses resting upon abutments or piers. Lattice bridge, a bridge formed by lattice girders. Pontoon bridge, Ponton bridge. See Pontoon. Skew bridge, a bridge built obliquely from bank to bank, as sometimes required in railway engineering. Suspension bridge. See Suspension. Trestle bridge, a bridge formed of a series of short, simple girders resting on trestles. Tubular bridge, a bridge in the form of a hollow trunk or rectangular tube, with cellular walls made of iron plates riveted together, as the Britannia bridge over the Menai Strait, and the Victoria bridge at Montreal. <physics> Wheatstone's bridge, a device for the measurement of resistances, so called because the balance between the resistances to be measured is indicated by the absence of a current in a certain wire forming a bridge or connection between two points of the apparatus; invented by Sir Charles Wheatstone.
