| 설명 | 중추신경계를 제외한 나머지 모든신경을 말함. 중추신경계는 뇌와 척수를 말하며, 그외 나머지 신경들로써 실제적으로 각 기관이나 사지 말단에 신경이 분포하며, 자극을 전달하는 일을 하는 신경을 모두 통틀어 말초신경이라 한다. 뇌에서 바로 나와 분포하는 뇌신경과 척수에서 기시하는 척수신경도 모두 말초신경에 해당한다. 또한 말초신경에는 각종 자율신경을 담당하는 교감신경, 부교감신경도 포함된다. |

| 영문 | optic nerve | 한글 | 시각신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 시각을 인지하는 신경. 이 신경은 단지 감각신경으로서만 작용한다. 따라서 어떤 사물을 따라 눈을 움직일 수 있는 것은 이 시각신경과는 무관하다(이것은 눈돌림신경(oculomotor nerve)에 의해 가능하다). 또한 시각신경은 고위중추신경계인 뇌에서 직접 분지하므로 손상시 재생은 불가능하며, 이에 대한 치료법은 없다. |

| 영문 | nerve | 한글 | 신경 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 여러 기관들의 서로간 상호연결체계가 바로 신경계이다. 이러한 신경계는 각 신경세포들에 의해 이루어지고 있으며, 여기에는 중추신경계(central nerve system: CNS)와 말초신경계(peripheral nerve system: PNS)가 있다. 중추신경계란 뇌와 척수를 말하며, 말초신경계는 12쌍의 뇌신경(cranial nerve: 뇌에서 기시하여 주로 얼굴부위와 목 부위에 분포한다)과 31쌍의 척수신경(spinal nerve: spinal cord에서 각기 양쪽으로 쌍을 이루어 나오는데 주로 목이하부위의 신체 각 부분으로 분포하게 된다)으로 구성되어 있다. 또한 말초신경계에는 앞에서 말한 뇌신경과 척수신경외에 자율신경계가 존재한다. 자율신경계는 다시 교감신경과 부교감신경으로 나뉘어져 서로간의 올바른 상호작용으로 몸속에서 여러 가지 작용을 수행한다. |

|---|---|
| anterior median fissure of spinal cord | A deep median fissure on the anterior surface of the spinal cord. Synonym: fissura mediana anterior medullae spinalis, anteromedian groove, sulcus ventralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior spinal artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, intracranial part of vertebral; distribution, spinal cord and pia mater; anastomoses, spinal of intercostal and lumbar arteries. Synonym: arteria spinalis anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterolateral column of spinal cord | The lateral white column of the spinal cord between the lines of exit and entrance of the anterior and posterior nerve roots. Synonym: funiculus lateralis, anterolateral column of spinal cord, lateral funiculus of spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arachnoid of spinal cord | That portion of the arachnoid which lies within the vertebral canal and surrounds the spinal cord and the vertebral portion of the subarachnoid space. It extends from the foramen magnum above to the S-2 vertebral level. Since the spinal cord ends at the L-2 vertebral level, a wide separation occurs between the arachnoid and pia mater, the lumbar cistern, filled with cerebrospinal fluid in which the cauda equina is suspended. Synonym: arachnoidea mater spinalis, spinal part of arachnoid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ganglia, spinal | Sensory ganglia located on the dorsal spinal roots within the vertebral column. The spinal ganglion cells are pseudounipolar. The single primary branch bifurcates sending a peripheral process to carry sensory information from the periphery and a central branch which relays that information to the spinal cord or brain. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ganglion cells of dorsal spinal root | Pseudounipolar nerve cell bodies in the ganglia of the dorsal spinal nerve roots; the sensory spinal nerves are composed of the peripheral axon branches of these sensory ganglion cell's, whereas the central axon branch of each such cell enters the spinal cord as a component of the dorsal root. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventral primary rami of cervical spinal nerves | See: ventral primary ramus of spinal nerve. Synonym: rami ventrales nervorum cervicalium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventral primary rami of lumbar spinal nerves | See: ventral primary ramus of spinal nerve. Synonym: rami ventrales nervorum lumbalium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventral primary rami of sacral spinal nerves | See: ventral primary ramus of spinal nerve. Synonym: rami ventrales nervorum sacralium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| recurrent meningeal branch of spinal nerves | A branch from the initial (mixed) part of each spinal nerve passing in a recurrent fashion back through the intervertebral foramen to supply spinal meninges, the posterior longitudinal ligament, posterolateral periphery of the intervertebral disc, and periosteum of the vertebrae. Synonym: ramus meningeus nervorum spinalium, recurrent meningeal branch of spinal nerves, sinuvertebral nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glioma of the spinal cord | A glial tumour of the spinal cord, commonly an ependymoma; neoplasms of the spinal cord are relatively rare, but glioma's constitute approximately one-fourth of the total. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central canal of spinal cord | The ependyma-lined lumen (cavity) of the neural tube, the cerebral part of which remains patent to form the ventricles of the brain, while the spinal part in the adult often is reduced to a solid strand of modified ependyma. Synonym: canalis centralis medullae spinalis, central canal of spinal cord, tubus medullaris. Synonym: syringocele. (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) |
| cervical enlargement of spinal cord | A spindle-shaped swelling of the spinal cord extending from the third cervical to the second thoracic vertebra, with maximum thickness opposite the fifth or sixth cervical vertebra, consequential to the innervation of the upper limb. Synonym: intumescentia cervicalis, cervical enlargement of spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
