| 영문 | afferent nerve | 한글 | 들신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 몸의 중심으로 들어오는 신경, 즉 감각신경을 지칭하는 말이다. |

| 영문 | peripheral nerve | 한글 | 말초신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 중추신경계를 제외한 나머지 모든신경을 말함. 중추신경계는 뇌와 척수를 말하며, 그외 나머지 신경들로써 실제적으로 각 기관이나 사지 말단에 신경이 분포하며, 자극을 전달하는 일을 하는 신경을 모두 통틀어 말초신경이라 한다. 뇌에서 바로 나와 분포하는 뇌신경과 척수에서 기시하는 척수신경도 모두 말초신경에 해당한다. 또한 말초신경에는 각종 자율신경을 담당하는 교감신경, 부교감신경도 포함된다. |

| 영문 | optic nerve | 한글 | 시각신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 시각을 인지하는 신경. 이 신경은 단지 감각신경으로서만 작용한다. 따라서 어떤 사물을 따라 눈을 움직일 수 있는 것은 이 시각신경과는 무관하다(이것은 눈돌림신경(oculomotor nerve)에 의해 가능하다). 또한 시각신경은 고위중추신경계인 뇌에서 직접 분지하므로 손상시 재생은 불가능하며, 이에 대한 치료법은 없다. |

| olfactory | <physiology> Of, pertaining to, or connected with, the sense of smell; as, the olfactory nerves; the olfactory cells. <anatomy> Olfactory organ, an organ for smelling. In vertebrates the olfactory organs are more or less complicated sacs, situated in the front part of the head and lined with epithelium innervated by the olfactory (or first cranial) nerves, and sensitive to odouriferous particles conveyed to it in the air or in water. Origin: L. Olfactus, p.p. Of olfacere to smell; olere to have a smell + facere = to make. See Odour, and Fact. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
|---|---|
| olfactory angle | The angle formed by the plane of the lamina cribrosa and the basicranial axis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory area | A region at the base of the brain through which numerous small branches of the anterior and middle cerebral arteries (lenticulostriate arteries) enter the depth of the cerebral hemisphere; it is bordered medially by the optic chasm and anterior half of the optic tract, rostrally and laterally by the lateral olfactory stria; its anteromedial part corresponds to the olfactory tubercle. Synonym: substantia perforata anterior, locus perforatus anticus, olfactory area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory bulb | Ovoid body resting on the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone where the olfactory nerve terminates. The olfactory bulb contains several types of nerve cells including the mitral cells, on whose dendrites the olfactory nerve synapses, forming the olfactory glomeruli. The accessory olfactory bulb, which receives the projection from the vomeronasal organ via the vomeronasal nerve, is also included here. (12 Dec 1998) |
| olfactory bundle | A fibre system, described by E. Zuckerkandl as "Reichbundel," descending from the transparent septum in front of the anterior commissure toward the base of the forebrain; it contains precommissural fibres of the fornix, fibres from the septum to the hypothalamus and innominate substance, as well as fibres ascending to the septum and hippocampus from the hypothalamus and midbrain; it bears no special relation to the sense of smell. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory cells | Very slender nerve cell's, with large nuclei and surmounted by six to eight long, sensitive cilia in the olfactory epithelium at the roof of the nose; they are the receptors for smell. Synonym: olfactory cells, Schultze's cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory cortex | The olfactory cortex, corresponding to the rostral half of the uncus; receiving its major afferents from the olfactory bulb, it is classified as allocortex. See: cerebral cortex. Synonym: olfactory cortex, piriform area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory epithelium | The epithelium lining the nose. (18 Nov 1997) |
| olfactory esthesioneuroblastoma | <tumour> A rare, often slowly growing malignant tumour of primitive nerve cells, usually arising in the olfactory area of the nasal cavity. Synonym: olfactory esthesioneuroblastoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory fila | Collective term denoting the numerous olfactory filaments: slender fascicles each composed of the thin, unmyelinated axons of 8 to 12 of the bipolar olfactory receptor cells in the olfactory portion of the nasal mucosa; the olfactory filaments pass through the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone and enter the olfactory bulb, where they terminate in synaptic contact with mitral cells, tufted cells, and granule cells. See: olfactory tract. Synonym: nervi olfactorii, fila olfactoria, first cranial nerve, nerve of smell, olfactory fila. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory foramen | One of the openings in the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone, transmitting the olfactory nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory glands | Branched tubuloalveolar serous secreting glands (of Bowman) in the mucous membrane of the olfactory region of the nasal cavity. Synonym: glandulae olfactoriae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory glomerulus | One of the small spherical territories in the olfactory bulb in which dendrites of mitral and tufted cells synapse with axons of olfactory receptor cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory groove | The sagittal sulcus on the inferior or orbital surface of each frontal lobe of the cerebrum, demarcating the straight gyrus from the orbital gyri, and covered on the orbital surface by the olfactory bulb and tract. Synonym: sulcus olfactorius, olfactory groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| olfactory hallucination | False perception in smell. (05 Mar 2000) |
