| 영문 | carcinoma in situ | 한글 | 상피내암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 신체의 내부나 외부를 쌓고 있는 조직을 상피라고 한다. 이 상피의 아래에는 대개 상피를 지지하고 있는 조직의 위에 존재한다. 그리고 이 지지조직과 상피 사이에는 기저막이라는 막이 있어서 상피와 지지조직을 구분해 준다. 암종(carcinoma)란 상피의 세포가 악성 변화를 하여 생기는 암을 말한다. 제자리암종이란 암종의 한 종류로 암종이 기저막을 벗어나지 못하고 상피내 즉, 제자리에 머물러 있는 경우를 말한다. |

| 영문 | carcinoma | 한글 | 암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 암종이란 상피세포(-신체의 내부나 외부를 쌓고 있는 조직을 상피라고 하고, 상피를 이루고 있는 세포를 상피세포라고 한다)의 과도한 증식에의한 악성종양을 이르는 말이다. |

| 영문 | renal cell carcinoma | 한글 | 콩팥세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥에 생긴 원시콩팥조직에서 발생한 암. 주로 원시세뇨관조직에서 발생한다. 대표적인 세포조직형은 염색시 세포질이 맑게 비어보이는 맑은세포암종이다. 치료는 수술과 항암화학요법이며 아주 드물지만 저절로 낫는 경우도 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. |

| 영문 | squamous cell carcinoma | 한글 | 편평세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 편평세포 기원의 암으로서, 편평세포가 있는 어떤 곳에서든 발생가능함. 따라서 식도암, 피부암, 폐암, 자궁암 등이 여기에 해당된다. 특히 피부암은 많은 자외선조사에 의해 생기는 광선각화증에서 발생가능하다. 병리조직학적 특성으로서 각질을 생성한다. |

| medullary folds | Synonym: neural folds. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| medullary groove | The gutter-like groove formed in the midline of the embryo's dorsal surface by the progressive elevation of the lateral margins of the neural plate; the ultimate dorsal fusion of the margins results in the formation of the neural tube. Synonym: medullary groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary laminae of thalamus | Layers of myelinated fibres that appear on transverse sections of the thalamus; the lamina medullaris externa marks the ventral and lateral borders of the thalamus and delimits it from the subthalamus and reticular nucleus of thalamus; the lamina medullaris interna is interposed between the mediodorsal and ventral nuclei of the thalamus and encloses the intralaminar nuclei (centromedian, paracentral, and central lateral nuclei). Synonym: laminae medullares thalami, medullary layers of thalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: laminae medullares thalami, medullary layers of thalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary membrane | <anatomy> The layer of vascular connective tissue lining the medullary cavities of bone. Origin: NL, fr. Gr. + a bone. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| medullary nephrocalcinosis | <radiology> Primary hyperparathyroidism, renal tubular acidosis more than 70%, medullary sponge kidney, hypercalcaemia, hypercalcuria, sarcoidosis, bony metastases, Paget's disease, hypervitaminosis D, milk-alkali syndrome, Williams syndrome (in kids), idiopathic, oxalosis (with or without completely opaque kidneys; younger age) see also: renal calcification (12 Dec 1998) |
| medullary plate | <embryology> A region of embryonic ectodermal cells, called neuroectoderm, that lie directly above the notochord. During neurulation, they change shape, so as to produce an infolding of the neural plate (the neural fold) that then seals to form the neural tube. (04 Jul 1999) |
| medullary pyramid | One of a number of pyramidal masses seen on longitudinal section of the kidney; collectively, they constitute the renal medulla, and contain part of the secreting tubules and the collecting tubules. Synonym: pyramis renalis, malpighian pyramid, medullary pyramid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary ray | The centre of the renal lobule, which has the shape of a small, steep pyramid, consisting of straight tubular parts; these may be either ascending or descending limbs of the nephronic loop or collecting tubules. Synonym: pars radiata lobuli corticalis renis, Ferrein's pyramid, processus ferreini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary sarcoma | <tumour> A soft, extremely vascular sarcoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary sheath | <anatomy, neurology> An insulating layer surrounding vertebrate peripheral neurons, that dramatically increases the speed of conduction. It is formed by specialised Schwann cells, that can wrap around neurons up to 50 times. The exposed areas are called nodes of Ranvier: they contain very high densities of sodium channels and action potentials jump from one node to the next, without involving the intermediate axon, a process known as saltatory conduction. (18 Nov 1997) |
| medullary space | The central cavity and the cellular intervals between the trabeculae of bone, filled with marrow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary spinal arteries | A large caliber spinal or radicular artery which courses centrally along a dorsal or ventral root, perhaps supplying it and the surrounding meninges in the fashion of any spinal/radicular artery, but which continues on to reach and anastomose with the anterior or posterior (longitudinal) spinal artery. Only 4-9 of the spinal arteries are medullary spinal arteries, found mainly in the lower cervical, lower thoracic and upper lumbar levels, the largest of which is the great radicular artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary sponge kidney | <radiology> Renal tubular ectasia, dilatation and cyst formation of collecting tubules in renal pyramids, Calcium most likely to be medullary nephrocalcinosis, not hereditary; males (2:1), usually bilateral associated with, renal tubular acidosis (RTA), Caroli disease, parathyroid adenoma, hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, ipsilateral hemihypertrophy (12 Dec 1998) |
| medullary striae of fourth ventricle | Slender fascicles of fibres extending transversally below the ependymal floor of the ventricle from the median sulcus to enter the inferior cerebellar peduncle. They arise from the arcuate nuclei on the ventral surface of the medullary pyramid. Synonym: striae medullares ventriculi quarti, acoustic striae, auditory striae, Bergmann's cords, medullary teniae, teniae acusticae. (05 Mar 2000) |
