| 영문 | bone age | 한글 | 뼈나이, 골연령 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 생리적 연령의 일종으로 나이를 더함에 따른 뼈의 성숙도를 평가하여 어린이의 전신발육을 판정하는 것이다. 뼈나이 평가에는 손목뼈나 발목뼈의 X선사진을 바탕으로 각 화골중심의 형태나 수를 평가한다. 손목뼈의 화골개수를 세는 방법은 간단해서 그의 수는 난 해를 포함한 연령과 거의 일치하지만 뼈발육의 지속을 가늠할 수 있다. |

| 영문 | bone scan | 한글 | 뼈스캔 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 뼈의 무기질은 칼슘과 인산염으로 이루어져 있다. 그래서 뼈에 병터가 있는 경우에는 뼈의 인산염분포나 양이 변화하게 된다. 이것을 이용하여 인산염에다가 방사선을 내보내는 물질을 붙여 환자에게 투여하고 그 물질이 내보내는 방사선을 이용하여 영상을 만들어서 뼈의 전반적인 상태나 병터의 발견에 이용하는 방법을 뼈스캔(bone scan)이라고 한다. |

| 영문 | mandibular bone, mandible | 한글 | 아래턱뼈, 하악골 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 얼굴을 구성하는 뼈의 한 종류로써, 흔히 말하는 "턱"을 이루는 뼈를 말한다. 얼굴뼈를 이루는 뼈는 위턱뼈(maxillary bone), 아래뼈(mandibular bone), 눈물뼈(lacrimal bone), 코뼈(nasal bone), 광대뼈(zygomatic bone), 보습뼈(vomer) 등이 있다. |

| 영문 | red bone marrow | 한글 | 적색골수 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 분화중의 갈비뼈, 척추뼈나 그 외의 많은 작은 뼈에 있는 활동성 골수이다. 적혈구나 과립백혈구의 생산 장소이다. |

| 영문 | nasal bone | 한글 | 코뼈 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 코뿌리의 기초를 이루는 사다리꼴의 얇은 뼈로 좌우 한 쌍의 물렁뼈이며, 정중앙선에서 붙어 있다. 코뼈의 윗모서리는 이마뼈, 아래모서리는 코선반연골, 가쪽모서리는 위턱뼈이마돌기와 접한다. 바깥면은 평활하지만 속안면은 요면을 이루며, 세로로 걸친 벌집뼈신경구는 코뼈구멍으로 연결되어 앞벌집뼈신경과 통한다. |

| radial head | The name applied to a head of origin of a muscle arising from the radius. Nomina Anatomica no longer lists any muscles as having radial heads, although formerly a radial head was listed for the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle Synonym: caput radiale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial head subluxation | Subluxation of the radial head within the elbow joint is also referred to as nursemaid's elbow. This orthopaedic condition is seen commonly in toddlers who may be lifted up by outstretched arms. Instability of the radial head leads to subluxation. The child with nursemaid's usually has their arm in hanging in extension at their side and any attempted movement of the elbow joint is met with pain. (27 Sep 1997) |
| radial immunodiffusion | <technique> A quantitative variation of immunodiffusion in which the agar gel contains evenly distributed antigen (or antibody) and its counterpart from the test sample diffuses into the gel from a single well resulting in a circular precipitin line around the sample well. The diameter of the precipitin ring is proportional to the concentration of the antibody (or antigen) present in the test sample. By comparing the diameter of the test specimen precipitin ring to known standards, a relatively insensitive estimation of the concentration of specific antibody or antigen can be achieved. (01 Dec 1998) |
| radial index artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, radial; distribution, radial side of index finger. Synonym: arteria radialis indicis, arteria volaris indicis radialis, radial index artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial keratotomy | A keratotomywith radial incisions around a clear central zone. A form of refractive keratoplasty used in the treatment of myopia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A major nerve of the upper extremity. In humans the fibres of the radial nerve originate in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spinal cord (usually c5 to t1), travel via the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, and supply motor innervation to extensor muscles of the arm and cutaneous sensory fibres to extensor regions of the arm and hand. (12 Dec 1998) |
| radial notch | The concavity on the lateral aspect of the coronoid process of the ulna that articulates with the head of the radius. Synonym: incisura radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial phenomenon | Dorsal flexion of the hand occurring involuntarily with palmar flexion of the fingers. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial ponderomotive force stabilisation | <radiobiology> In magnetic mirror devices, use of rf waves in the neighborhood of the ion cyclotron frequency to stabilise interchange modes. The radial ponderomotive force produced by a radial gradient in the applied rf electric field opposes the destabilising centrifugal force resulting from bad magnetic field curvature. The net particle current is in the direction that would result from field lines with good curvature, eliminating the drive for the interchange instability. (09 Oct 1997) |
| radial pulse | The pulse as appreciated at the radial artery usually in the wrist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial recurrent artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, radial; distribution, ascends around lateral side of elbow joint; anastomoses, radial collateral, interosseous recurrent. Synonym: arteria recurrens radialis, recurrent radial artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial reflex | On tapping the lower end of the radius, flexion of the forearm occurs, and sometimes, on strong percussion, flexion of the fingers. See: inverted radial reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial scar | A variant of sclerosing adenosis of the breast with central scar formation and radiating hyperplastic ducts. Synonym: radial scar. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radial sclerosing lesion | A variant of sclerosing adenosis of the breast with central scar formation and radiating hyperplastic ducts. Synonym: radial scar. (05 Mar 2000) |
