Synonym: musculus scalenus anterior, anterior scalene muscle, musculus scalenus anticus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scalenus anterior syndrome | <syndrome> One of the precursors of disputed neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome; a popular cause for upper extremity discomfort in the late 1930s and 1940s, based on the unproven concept that the lower trunk and brachial plexus and subclavian artery could be compressed in the intrascalene triangle by hypertrophic scalenus anticus muscle, the compression in turn affecting the nerves to it and setting up a vicious circle; this concept was essentially abandoned in the 1950s, when real causes, such as cervical radiculopathy and carpal tunnel syndrome, for upper extremity symptoms were appreciated, but resurrected in the 1980s, without attribution, as aetiology for upper plexus type of disputed neurologic thoracic outlet syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scalenus medius | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, costotransverse lamellae of transverse processes of second to sixth cervical vertebrae; insertion, first rib posterior to subclavian artery; action, raises first rib; nerve supply, cervical plexus. Synonym: musculus scalenus medius, middle scalene muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scalenus minimus muscle | <anatomy> An occasional independent muscular fasciculus between the scalenus anterior and medius, and having the same action and innervation. Synonym: musculus scalenus minimus, Albinus' muscle, Sibson's muscle, smallest scalene muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scalenus posterior | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, posterior tubercles of transverse processes of fourth to sixth cervical vertebrae; insertion, lateral surface of second rib; action, elevates second rib; nerve supply, cervical and brachial plexuses. Synonym: musculus scalenus posterior, musculus scalenus posticus, posterior scalene muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scaler | <dentistry> A tool with a curved hook on one end. The orthodontist uses the scaler to remove excess cement, and check for gaps. (08 Jan 1998) |

| glasgow coma scale | A scale that assesses the degree of coma in patients with craniocerebral injuries; also assesses brain function, brain damage, and patient progress. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Celsius scale | A temperature scale that is based upon the triple point of water (defined to be 273.16 K) and assigned the value of 0.01캜; this has replaced the centigrade scale because the triple point of water can be more accurately measured than the ice point; although, for most practical purposes, the two scales are equivalent. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centigrade scale | A thermometer scale in which there are 100 degrees between the freezing point of water (assigned the value of 0.0캜) and the boiling point of water at sea level; technically, supplanted by the Celsius scale. Compare: Celsius scale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Charriere scale | A scale for grading sizes of sounds, tubules, and catheters as based on a measurement of 1/3 mm and equaling 1 fr on the scale (e.g., 3 fr = 1 mm); grading to scale is carried out using a metal plate with holes ranging from 1/3 mm to 1 cm in diameter. Synonym: Charriere scale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gray scale | <microscopy> The various shades of gray or luminance values in a video picture. As industrial test standards, gray wedges are used with discrete steps incrementing in brightness by factors of ~ 7. 3 (05 Aug 1998) |
| gray-scale ultrasonography | The display of the ultrasound echo amplitude or signal intensity as different shades of gray, improving image quality compared to the obsolete black and white presentation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gunter's scale | A scale invented by the Rev. Edmund Gunter (1581-1626), a professor of astronomy at Gresham College, London, who invented also Gunter's chain, and Gunter's quadrant. Gunter's scale is a wooden rule, two feet long, on one side of which are marked scales of equal parts, of chords, sines, tangents, rhombs, etc, and on the other side scales of logarithms of these various parts, by means of which many problems in surveying and navigation may be solved, mechanically, by the aid of dividers alone.

| Mohs scale | A qualitative scale in which minerals are classified in order of their increasing hardness, based on the fact that the harder of two materials will scratch the softer and will not be scratched by it. The scale lists 15 substances: 1, talc; 2, gypsum; 3, calcite; 4, fluorite; 5, apatite; 6, orthoclase, periclase; 7, vitreous pure silica; 8, quartz, stellite; 9, topaz; 10, garnet; 11, tantalum carbide, fused zirconia; 12, fused alumina; 13, silicon carbide; 14, boron carbide; 15, diamond.

A map is a hardcopy representation of part of the earth's surface and it is essential that a scale bar and scale ratio be present on the map to convey the reduction factor. This enables the map user to measure a distance on the map and determine the distance on the ground. These days maps are usually produced under the metric system which makes it easy to perform this task. ...
