| 영문 | tissue biopsy | 한글 | 조직생검 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 환자의 병적인 조직의 일부를 떼어 내서 병리조직표본을 만들어서 현미경적으로 검사하는 것. 외과적 수술재료로부터 병리조직학적 검사를 하여 생체내의 병변을 추구하는 분야를 외과병리학이라고 한다. 생검에는 쐐기생검, 천자침생검, 꿰뚫기식생검, 내시경생검 외에 세포진이라고 불리우는 박리세포진이나 세척세포진 등 떨어진 세포를 도말검사하는 방법이 포함된다. |

| testicular implant | A device placed surgically in the scrotum in males with absence or severe hypoplasia of the testis. Synonym: testicular prosthesis. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| testicular microlithiasis | <radiology> Ultrasound features: multiple intratesticular non-shadowing echogenic foci, size: 1 - 3 mm, variable number, distribution: usually diffuse pathology: cellular degeneration, central calcified core clinical significance: prevalence: 0.05-0.6%, possible association with primary testicular malignancy, association: cryptorchid testes, infertility Ref: Backus et al., Radiology 1994; 192:781-785 (12 Dec 1998) |

| testicular relapse | <oncology> Recurrence of leukaemia in the testicles. The disease may be restricted to the testicles or may also show evidence of disease in either the bone marrow or CNS. Treatment will depend on the timing and extent of relapsed disease. (13 Jan 1998) |
| testicular scan | <radiology> Tc-99m pertechnetate 30 mCi, interpretation: torsion = cold defect, epididymo-orchitis = hot spot, trauma = hot or cold (12 Dec 1998) |
| testicular torsion | <surgery> An acute condition that results when there is a twisting of the spermatic cord in the scrotum, thus compromising the blood supply to that testicle. Symptoms include severe testicular pain and swelling. (13 Jan 1998) |
| testicular tubular adenoma | A neoplasm of the ovary, arising from the ovarian stroma, mimicking to a greater or lesser extent derivatives of the sex cord mesenchyme of the testis, and sometimes causing defeminization and virilization. (12 Dec 1998) |
| testicular veins | See: right testicular vein, left testicular vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ureteric branches of the testicular artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of testicular artery arising as it is crossed by the ureter in the male; supplies mid portion of ureter. Synonym: rami ureterici arteriae testicularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| left testicular vein | <anatomy, vein> Vein conveying blood from the left testis, originating as the pampiniform plexus and entering the left renal vein. Synonym: vena testicularis sinistra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abdominal wall fat pad biopsy | <investigation, procedure, surgery> The removal of a small specimen of the abdominal wall fat pad for microscopic examination. Often used in the diagnosis of amyloidosis. Performed with a local anaesthetic. (25 Jun 1999) |
| aspiration biopsy | Removal of a sample of tissue from the breast using a wide-core needle with suction. (09 Oct 1997) |
| biopsy | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A biopsy refers to a procedure that involves obtaining a tissue specimen for microscopic analysis to establish a precise diagnosis. Biopsies can be accomplished with a biopsy needle (passed through the skin into the organ in question) or by open surgical incision. See: abdominal wall fat pad biopsy, endometrial biopsy, heart biopsy, muscle biopsy, needle biopsy, nerve biopsy, open lung biopsy, pleural needle biopsy, salivary gland biopsy. (07 Apr 1998) |
| biopsy, endometrial | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A procedure by which a sample is taken of the endometrial lining of the uterus. This may be performed with or without an anaesthetic. Risks include bleeding after the procedure. This test is usually performed in the evaluation of abnormal menses, heavy menstruation or post-menopausal bleeding. It may be part of an infertility evaluation. Endometrial biopsy can reveal uterine cancer, uterine fibroids, uterine polyps and adenomyosis. Often performed in those with endometriosis as part of the evaluation. (21 Mar 1998) |
