| apicoposterior branch of left superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> Drains apicoposterior bronchopulmonary segment of superior lobe of left lung. Synonym: ramus apicoposterior venae pulmonalis sinistrae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ascending anterior branch | The ascending anterior branch of the superior lobar branches of the left and right pulmonary arteries. Synonym: ramus anterior ascendens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ascending branch | A branch directed superiorly. Nomina Anatomica recognises the ascending branch of the following: 1) deep circumflex iliac artery; 2) lateral cerebral sulcus; 3) lateral circumflex femoral artery. Synonym: ramus ascendens. (05 Mar 2000) |

| branch | <plant biology> A natural division of a plant stem. (17 Dec 1997) |
| branch migration | <molecular biology> Movement of the branch point in a branched DNA sequence formed from two parent DNA molecules with practically identical sequences. (17 Dec 1997) |
| branch of auriculotemporal nerve to tympanic membrane | Sensory branch of the auriculotemporal nerve supplying the external surface of the tympanic membrane. Synonym: ramus membranae tympani nervi auriculotemporalis, nerve of tympanic membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| branch of glossopharyngeal nerve to stylopharyngeus muscle | <anatomy> Sole motor branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve to the stylopharyngeus muscle. Synonym: ramus musculi stylopharyngei nervi glossopharyngei. (05 Mar 2000) |
| branch to atrioventricular node | The atrioventricular branches or the nodal branches, the small arteries supplying the atrioventricular node; they usually arise from the right coronary artery where it starts to descend the posterior interventricular sulcus.

| branch to sinuatrial node | Ascending atrial branch, usually (55%) arising from the anterior stem of the right coronary artery (but 35-45% arising from the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery), which runs around the base of the superior vena cava to reach the sinuatrial node. Synonym: ramus nodi sinuatrialis arteriae coronaria dextra, branch to sinuatrial node, sinuatrial nodal branch of right coronary artery, sinuatrial node artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
