| vein of cochlear canaliculus | It drains the cochlea, sacculus, and part of the utricules, and empties into the superior bulb of the jugular vein by accompanying the perilymphatic duct through the cochlear canaliculus. Synonym: vena aqueductus cochleae, vein of cochlear aqueduct, vena canaliculi cochleae. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| mastoid canaliculus | The canal that extends from the jugular fossa laterally through the mastoid process. It transmits the auricular branch of the vagus. Synonym: canaliculus mastoideus, auricular canaliculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cochlear canaliculus | A minute canal in the temporal bone that passes from the cochlea inferiorly to open in front of the medial side of the jugular fossa. It contains the perilymphatic duct. Synonym: canaliculus cochleae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior canaliculus of chorda tympani | A canal leading from the facial canal to the tympanic cavity through which the chorda tympani nerve enters this cavity. Synonym: canaliculus chordae tympani, iter chordae posterius, small canal of chorda tympani. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secretory canaliculus | See: intercellular canaliculus, intracellular canaliculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intercellular canaliculus | One of the fine channels between adjoining secretory cells, such as those between serous cells in salivary glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intracellular canaliculus | <cell biology> A fine canal formed by invagination of the cell membrane into the cytoplasm of a cell, such as those of the parietal cells of the stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lacrimal canaliculus | A curved canal beginning at the lacrimal punctum in the margin of each eyelid near the medial commissure and running transversely medially to empty with its fellow into the lacrimal sac. Synonym: canaliculus lacrimalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angle of aperture | <ophthalmology, optics> The angle formed by lines drawn from the ends of the diameter of a lens to its point of focus. See: angular aperture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| angular aperture | The angle, in air, of light that passes from the object to the ends of the diameter of the front lens of the microscope objective. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior nasal aperture | The anterior nasal opening in the skull. Synonym: apertura piriformis, piriform opening. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aperture | <physics> The opening in an optical system which restricts the size of the bundle of rays incident on a given surface. (Usually circular and specified by diameter.) (09 Oct 1997) |
| aperture, angular | <microscopy> The angle between the most divergent rays that can pass through a lens to form the image of an object. The angle subtended between the axis of a lens and the largest accepted angle of the image-forming rays. With microscope objectives the trigonometric sine of this angle is used to define numerical aperture but as measured from the axial object point. (05 Aug 1998) |
| aperture correction | <microscopy> An electronic process used in some high-resolution video cameras and monitors that compensates for the loss in sharpness of detail due to the finite dimensions (aperture) of the scanning beam. (05 Aug 1998) |
| aperture diaphragm | A metal device that limits the area of the beam emerging from an X-ray tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
