| 영문 | cerebral artery | 한글 | 대뇌동맥 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 대뇌의 혈액을 공급하는 동맥. 대뇌의 앞부분의 혈액을 공급하는 앞대뇌동맥(anterior cerebral artery), 중간부위의 혈액을 공급하는 중간대뇌동맥(middle cerebral artery), 뒷부분의 혈액을 공급하는 뒤대뇌동맥(posterior cererbral artery)의 세 가지가 있다. 대뇌는 크게 두 가지 동맥에 의해서 혈액을 공급받는다. 하나는 속목동맥(internal carotid artery)이고 하나는 척추동맥(vertebral artery)이다. 이 동맥들은 좌-우로 두 개씩 쌍을 이루어 뇌에 혈액을 공급한다. 척추동맥은 대동맥에서 나와서 목뼈에 있는 가로돌기구멍을 통해서 머리쪽으로 올라온다. 그리고는 두 개의 좌우 척추가 한 개로 합쳐져서 바닥동맥라는 동맥을 이룬다. 목동맥은 대동맥에서 기시하여 속목동맥과 바깥목동맥으로 나뉜다(나뉘기 이전을 온목동맥이라 한다). 바깥목동맥은 얼굴과 뇌를 제외한 머리의 부위에 혈액을 공급하는 혈관이고, 속목동맥은 뇌에 혈액을 공급한다.   |

| 설명 | 심장에서 나오는 피를 운반하는 혈관을 말한다. |

| 영문 | carotid artery | 한글 | 목동맥 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 머리부분의 혈액을 공급하는 동맥. 온목동맥는 대동맥에서 직접 나오는 동맥으로, 바깥목동맥와 속목동맥로 나뉜다. 속목동맥은 뇌의 혈액을 공급하는 역할을 하고, 바깥목동맥은 뇌를 제외한 머리부분에 혈액을 공급하는 역할을 한다. |

| adrenal calcification | <radiology> Haemorrhage, cyst, Addison's disease (e.g., TB, histo), neoplasm, pheochromocytoma, adrenal cortical adenoma/carcinoma, adrenal choristoma (myelolipoma), metastatic melanoma, Wolman disease (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| basal ganglia calcification | <radiology> Idiopathic: normal variant (50%), abnormal calcium metabolism, hyperparathyroidism, hypo-, pseudohypo-, and pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism, ToRCHS infection (especially CMV, toxo), tuberous sclerosis, Cockayne syndrome, Fahr syndrome (ferrocalcinosis), lipoid proteinosis (hyalinosis cutis) (12 Dec 1998) |
| bladder calcification | <radiology> Schistosomiasis (bilharziasis), major cause worldwide, 50% have calcification, can cause squamous cell carcinoma, TB and other infections, radiation cystitis, calculi, bladder neoplasms, transitional cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, leiomyosarcoma, haemangioma, neuroblastoma, osteosarcoma (12 Dec 1998) |
| calcification | <biochemistry> The process by which organic tissue becomes hardened by a deposit of calcium salts within its substance. Origin: L. Facere = to make. (21 Mar 1998) |
| calcification lines of Retzius | Incremental line's of rhythmic deposition of successive layers of enamel matrix during development. Synonym: lines of Retzius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| calcification, physiologic | Process by which organic tissue becomes hardened by the physiologic deposit of calcium salts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pathologic calcification | Calcification occurring in excretory or secretory passages as calculi, and in tissues other than bone and teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal calcification | <radiology> Nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis, medullary (more common), cortical, neoplastic or inflammatory mass, renal cell carcinoma, XGP, tuberculosis (12 Dec 1998) |
| metastatic calcification | Calcification occurring in nonosseous, viable tissue (i.e., tissue that is not degenerated or necrotic), as in the stomach, lungs, and kidneys (and rarely in other sites); the cells of these organs secrete acid materials, and, under certain conditions in instances of hypercalcaemia, the alteration in pH seems to cause precipitation of calcium salts in these sites.

| physiological intracranial calcification | <radiology> Pineal gland, habenular commisure, choroid plexus, dura, pacchionian bodies, basal ganglia and dentate nucleus (12 Dec 1998) |
| Monckeberg's calcification | Arterial sclerosis involving the peripheral arteries, especially of the legs of older people, with deposition of calcium in the medial coat (pipestem arteries) but with little or no encroachment on the lumen. Synonym: medial arteriosclerosis, Monckeberg's calcification, Monckeberg's degeneration, Monckeberg's medial calcification, Monckeberg's sclerosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Monckeberg's medial calcification | Arterial sclerosis involving the peripheral arteries, especially of the legs of older people, with deposition of calcium in the medial coat (pipestem arteries) but with little or no encroachment on the lumen. Synonym: medial arteriosclerosis, Monckeberg's calcification, Monckeberg's degeneration, Monckeberg's medial calcification, Monckeberg's sclerosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pineal gland calcification | <radiology> Visible on plain skull film (33-76% in adults), seen more frequently on CT, rare in kids less than 6 y.o. (presence suggests neoplasm), usually in the form of a cluster of amorphous, irregular densities, may be solitary, the size of calcification: usually 3-5 mm, if greater than 1 cm, suspect pinealoma, AV malformation, etc. See: physiological intracranial calcifications (12 Dec 1998) |
| pulp calcification | A calcified body found in the pulp chamber of a tooth; may be composed of irregular dentin (true denticle) or due to ectopic calcification of pulp tissue (false denticle). Synonym: denticle, pulp calcification, pulp calculus, pulp nodule, pulp stone. Origin: endo-+ G. Lithos, stone (05 Mar 2000) |
