| 설명 | 인체를 여러 개로 나누는 면이 있는데, 크게 시상면(sagittal plane), 관상면(coronal plane), 수평면(horizontal plane)으로 나눌 수 있다. 시상면은 인체를 좌우로, 관상면은 앞뒤로, 수평면은 위아래로 가르는 면이다. |

| portable radiography | Making radiographic films of a patient confined to bed by taking a movable X-ray machine to the room. Synonym: bedside radiography. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| scanning equalization radiography | An electronically enhanced method of radiography in which a small X-ray beam is scanned over the patient while its attenuation is measured, providing feedback to modulate beam intensity in order to equalise average X-ray film exposure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sectional radiography | <procedure, radiology> The recording of internal body images at a predetermined plane by means of the tomograph, also called body section roentgenography. Origin: Gr. Graphein = to write (18 Nov 1997) |
| serial radiography | Making several X-ray exposures of a single region over a period of time, as in angiography. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spot-film radiography | An X-ray of a localised region, usually under study by fluoroscopy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital radiography | Computed radiography or computer processing of a digitised image from a conventional image-intensifier and video camera. See: DSA. (05 Mar 2000) |
| electron radiography | <radiology> Radiographic imaging in which X-radiation incident on the receptor is converted to a latent charge image and subsequently recovered by a special printing process; advantages include wider latitude of exposure and greater sensitivity than conventional film-screen combinations. See: xeroradiography, phosphor plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abdominal section | Transabdominal incision into the peritoneal cavity. Synonym: abdominal section, laparotomy, ventrotomy. Origin: celio-+ G. Tome, incision Vaginal celiotomy, opening the peritoneal cavity through the vagina. Synonym: culdotomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| attached cranial section | Craniotomy with a segment of the calvaria and attached soft tissues turned as a flap to expose the cranial cavity. Synonym: attached cranial section, osteoplastic craniotomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axial section | A cross section obtained by slicing, actually or through imaging techniques, the body or any part of the body structure, in a horizontal plane, i.e., a plane which intersects the longitudinal axis at a right angle. Since actual sectioning in the transverse plane results in an inferior and a superior portion, an anatomical transverse section may be a two-dimensional view of the cut surface on the inferior aspect of the superior portion, or of the superior aspect of the inferior portion. By convention, in medical imaging transverse sections demonstrate the former unless otherwise stated. Synonym: axial section. (05 Mar 2000) |
| caesarian section | Procedure in which an infant, rather than being born vaginally, is surgically removed from the uterus. Also referred to as a C section. As the name Caesarian suggests, this is not exactly a new procedure. It was done in ancient civilizations upon the death of a near-full-term pregnant woman to salvage the baby. Julius Caesar (or one of his predecessors) was born by this procedure. Hence, the name Caesarian. The term section in surgery refers to the division of tissue. What is being divided here is the abdominal wall of the mother as well as the wall of the uterus in order to extract the baby. In Shakespeare's Macbeth the Witches' prophecy was that..none of woman born/ Shall harm Macbeth (IV.i). Unfortunately for Macbeth, the Scottish nobleman Macduff was from his mother's womb/ Untimely ripped. And thus not naturally born of woman (V.vii). Macduff was the only agent capable of destroying Macbeth. He killed Macbeth in battle. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vaginal birth after cesarian section | It was once the rule that after a c-section, the next delivery also had to be by c-section. Now vaginal delivery after cesarian section (vbac) is frequently feasible. See: vbac. (12 Dec 1998) |
| parasagittal section | A cross section obtained by slicing, actually or through imaging techniques, the body or any part of the body, or any anatomic structure in the sagittal plane, i.e., in a vertical plane parallels to the median plane. Since actual sectioning in the sagittal plane results in a right and a left portion, an anatomical sagittal section may be a two-dimensional view of the cut surface on the medial aspect of either portion. Synonym: parasagittal section. (05 Mar 2000) |
| median section | A cross section attained by slicing in the median plane, actually or through imaging techniques, the body or any part of the body which occupies or crosses the median plane or by slicing any generally symmetrical anatomic structure, such as a finger or a cell, in its midline. Since actual sectioning the median plane results in a right and a left half, an anatomical median section may be a two-dimensional view of the cut surface on the medial aspect of either half. Synonym: midsagittal section. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cesarean section | A surgical procedure that involves the delivery of the foetus through an abdominal incision. C-sections account for about 1/5 of all births in the us. Indications include: failure to progress, foetal distress, cephalopelvic disproportion (baby's too big for birth canal), placenta previa, placental abruption, placental insufficiency, breech baby, active genital herpes, multiple gestation, preeclampsia and excessive scarring from previous surgeries. The average hospital stay is about 4 days. The maternal death rate with C-section is three times higher than with natural delivery. (27 Sep 1997) |
