| Bottcher's space | The blind pouch at the end of the endolymphatic duct. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| Bowman's space | The slitlike space between the visceral and parietal layers of the capsule of the renal corpuscle; it opens into the proximal tubule of the nephron at the neck of the tubule. Synonym: Bowman's space, filtration space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Burns' space | A narrow interval between the deep and superficial layers of the cervical fascia above the manubrium of the sternum through which pass the anterior jugular veins. Synonym: Burns' space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capsular space | The slitlike space between the visceral and parietal layers of the capsule of the renal corpuscle; it opens into the proximal tubule of the nephron at the neck of the tubule. Synonym: Bowman's space, filtration space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Malacarne's space | The bottom of the interpeduncular fossa at the base of the midbrain, extending from the anterior border of the pons forward to the mamillary bodies, and containing numerous openings for the passage of perforating branches of the posterior cerebral arteries. Synonym: substantia perforata posterior, locus perforatus posticus, Malacarne's space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| velocity space | <radiobiology> Mathematical space where each point corresponds not to a certain location in reality, but to a certain velocity. Distribution functions typically involve mixes of both position and velocity spaces. (See distribution function.) Contrast with position space where each point corresponds to a given location. (09 Oct 1997) |
| velocity space instability | <radiobiology> A class of instabilities driven by particle distributions (in velocity space) which are not in thermal equilibrium. (09 Oct 1997) |
| parapharyngeal space | The space limited by the lateral wall of the pharynx, the cervical vertebrae, and the medial pterygoid muscle. Synonym: parapharyngeal space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral epidural space | Single-layered strong membrane, comparable to and continuous with (at foramen magnum) the meningeal layer of the intracranial dura mater of the brain. It does not (in contrast to the dura mater of brain) adhere to the enveloping bony structures (vertebrae) or their periosteum, being separated from the latter by a considerable space, the vertebral epidural space-a true space containing the internal vertebral venous plexus embedded in a matrix of epidural fat. Synonym: dura mater spinalis, endorrhachis, theca vertebralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cartilage space | A cavity within the matrix of cartilage, occupied by a chondrocyte. Synonym: cartilage space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Parona's space | A space between the pronator quadratus deep and the overlying flexor tendons of the forearm which is continuous through the carpal tunnel with the medial central palmar space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| parotid space | A deep hollow on the side at the sides of the face flanking the posterior aspect of the ramus of the mandible with its attached muscles which is occupied by the parotid gland; it is lined with fascial laminae (the parotid sheath) derived from the investing layer of deep cervical fascia; the structures bounding the space collectively constitute the parotid bed. Surgeons operating in the area take advantage of the fact that the anteroposterior dimensions of the parotid space increase with protrusion of the mandible. Synonym: parotid recess, recessus parotideus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gingival space | The space between the surface of the tooth and the free gingiva. Synonym: sulcus gingivalis, gingival crevice, gingival space, subgingival space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Virchow-Robin space | A tunnel-like extension of the subarachnoid space surrounding blood vessels that pass into the brain or spinal cord from the subarachnoid space; the lining of the channel is composed of pia and glial feet of astrocytes; a continuation of the space around capillaries and nerve cells probably does not occur. Synonym: His' perivascular space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Reinke's space | The loose connective tissue in the superficial layer of the lamina propria of the vocal fold. Oedema of this space produces hoarseness in chronic smokers or in hypothyroidism. (05 Mar 2000) |
