| iron lung | A mechanical respirator in which the body except the head is encased within a metal tank, which is sealed at the neck with an airtight gasket; artificial respiration is induced by making the air pressure inside negative. Synonym: iron lung, tank respirator. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| oblique fissure of lung | The deep fissure in each lung that runs obliquely downward and forward. It divides the upper and lower lobes of the left lung and separates the upper and middle lobes from the lower lobe of the right lung. Synonym: fissura obliqua pulmonis, major fissure, oblique fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| open lung biopsy | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A procedure which involves the removal of a small specimen of lung tissue for microscopic analysis via a surgical incision in the chest wall. This test can be used to identify a variety of lung cancers, lung infections and lung diseases. (21 Mar 1998) |
| thresher's lung | <chest medicine> Type III hypersensitivity response to Micropolyspora faeni, a thermophilic bacterium found in mouldy hay. (18 Nov 1997) |
| total lung capacity | The volume of air contained in the lungs at the end of a maximal inspiration. It is the equivalent to each of the following sums: vital capacity plus residual volume; inspiratory capacity plus functional residual capacity; tidal volume plus inspiratory reserve volume plus functional residual capacity; tidal volume plus inspiratory reserve volume plus expiratory reserve volume plus residual volume. (12 Dec 1998) |
| endstage lung | Severe diffuse interstitial fibrosis and honeycombing. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transplant lung syndrome | <syndrome> A syndrome associated with fever and diffuse bilateral pulmonary infiltration mainly at the base or at the hilum of the lung; can accompany rejection of an organ (kidney) transplant or follow a reduction in dosage of an immunosuppressive drug. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transverse fissure of the lung | The deep fissure that separates the upper and middle lobes of the right lung. Synonym: fissura horizontalis pulmonis dextri, horizontal fissure of right lung, minor fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trench lung | A psychogenic hyperventilation marked by paroxysmal attacks of rapid breathing, without any signs of organic disease, observed in stressful situations such as battle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| extravascular lung water | <physiology> Water present within the lungs; its volume is roughly equal to, or a little less than, the intracellular blood volume of the lungs. Accumulations of extravascular lung water result in pulmonary oedema. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Farmer's lung | <chest medicine> Type III hypersensitivity response to Micropolyspora faeni, a thermophilic bacterium found in mouldy hay. (18 Nov 1997) |
| unilateral hyperlucent lung | Chronic bronchiolitis obliterans predominating on one side. See: unilateral lobar emphysema. (05 Mar 2000) |
| upper lobe of lung | The lobe of the right lung that lies above the oblique and horizontal fissures and includes the apical, posterior and anterior bronchopulmonary segments; in the left lung, the lobe lies above the oblique fissure and contains the apicoposterior, anterior, superior lingular and inferior lingular segments. Synonym: lobus superior pulmonis, upper lobe of lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uraemic lung | Perihilar oedema of the lung associated with renal failure and hypertension; the peripheral parts of the lung remain clear. Synonym: uraemic pneumonia, uraemic pneumonitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fibroid lung | Chronic interstitial pneumonia in a lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
