| solid phase immunoassay | Immunoassay in which the antigen or serum is bound to a solid surface, such as a microplate wall or the sides of a tube, the other reactants being free in solution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| solid renal mass | <radiology> MALIGNANT until proven otherwise!, renal cell carcinoma (85%), other malignancy (10%), renal sarcoma, lymphoma, transitional cell carcinoma, metastases, benign mass (5%), oncocytoma, angiomyolipoma (fat present), fibroma (12 Dec 1998) |
| solid-state detector | A detector that uses a crystalline scintillating material rather than an ionization chamber to detect or measure radiation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| solid state laser | <radiobiology> A laser using a transparent substance (crystalline or glass) as the active medium, doped to provide the energy states necessary for lasing. The pumping mechanism is the radiation from a powerful light source, such as a flashlamp. The ruby, Nd-YAG, and Nd:glass lasers are solid-state lasers. (09 Oct 1997) |
| solid tumour | A cancer that originates in organ or tissue other than bone marrow or the lymph system. (16 Dec 1997) |
