| relative sensitivity | The sensitivity of a medical screening test as determined by comparison with the same type of test; e.g., sensitivity of a new serological test relative to sensitivity of an established serological test. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| relative specificity | The specificity of a medical screening test as determined by comparison with the same type of test (e.g., specificity of a new serological test relative to specificity of an established serological test). (05 Mar 2000) |
| relative value scales | Coded listings of physician or other professional services using units that indicate the relative value of the various services they perform. They take into account time, skill, and overhead cost required for each service, but generally do not consider the relative cost-effectiveness. Appropriate conversion factors can be used to translate the abstract units of the relative value scales into dollar fees for each service based on work expended, practice costs, and training costs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| relative viscosity | The ratio of the viscosity of a solution or dispersion to the viscosity of the solvent or continuous phase. (05 Mar 2000) |
| 5-year relative survival rate | <statistics> The likelihood that a patient will not die from causes associated with his or her cancer for at least 5 years after diagnosis. This is the standard many professionals use when determining someone a survivor of cancer. (16 Dec 1997) |
| absolute scotoma | A scotoma in which there is no perception of light. (05 Mar 2000) |
| annular scotoma | A circular scotoma surrounding the centre of the field of vision. See: ring scotoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arcuate scotoma | A scotoma extending from the blind spot and arching into the nasal field following the lines of retinal nerve fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bjerrum's scotoma | A comet-shaped scotoma, occurring in glaucoma, attached at the temporal end to the blind spot or separated from it by a narrow gap; the defect widens as it extends above and nasally curves around the fixation spot, and then extends downward to end exactly at the nasal horizontal meridian. Synonym: Bjerrum's sign, sickle scotoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| caecocentral scotoma | A scotoma involving the optic disk area (blind spot) and the papillomacular fibres; there are three forms: 1) the caecocentral defect which extends from the blind spot toward or into the fixation area; 2) angioscotoma; 3) glaucomatous nerve-fibre bundle scotoma, due to involvement of nerve-fibre bundles at the edge of the optic disk. See: Bjerrum's scotoma, Ronne's nasal step. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paracentral scotoma | A scotoma adjacent to the fixation point. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glaucomatous nerve-fibre bundle scotoma | See: caecocentral scotoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central scotoma | A scotoma involving the fixation point. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mental scotoma | Absence of insight into, or inability to comprehend, items relative to a subject whose content is highly emotional to the individual. Synonym: blind spot. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pericentral scotoma | A scotoma that surrounds the fixation point more or less symmetrically. (05 Mar 2000) |
