| 영문 | cerebral concussion | 한글 | 뇌진탕 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 외부에서 기원하는 물리적 충격으로 인해 뇌의 물리적 손상없이 일어나는 뇌의 기능 장애. 일시적으로 무의식, 반사소실, 등이 나타나지만 결국은 아무 후유증없이 정상으로 돌아온다. |

| 영문 | cerebral cortex | 한글 | 대뇌겉질 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 대뇌의 표면부위를 대뇌겉질이라고도 한다. 대개 얕은회색질(superficial gray matter)와 동의어로 쓰인다. 회색질이란 대뇌의 표면에 신경세포가 모여있는 곳으로 회색을 띠는 부분을 말한다. 이와는 대조적으로 백색질이란 신경세포가 내는 신경섬유가 분포하는 곳이며 대뇌에서 회색질의 안쪽에 존재한다. 참고로 말하면 척수에서는 대뇌와 반대로 회색질 안쪽에 존재하고 백색질이 밖에 존재한다. 즉 척수에서는 신경세포가 척수의 안쪽에 존재하고 바깥쪽에 그 신경세포가 내는 신경섬유가 존재한다. |

|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 대뇌란 뇌의 가장 큰 부분을 차지하는 곳으로 사고, 운동, 성격, 기억 등의 고차원적인 기능을 행하는 곳이다. 대뇌는 크게 좌, 우 두 개로 나뉘어져 있고 각각을 좌, 우 대뇌반구라고 한다. |

| orbital branch of middle meningeal artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of middle meningeal artery traversing superior orbital fissure and running toward lacrimal gland. See: anastomotic branch of middle meningeal artery to lacrimal artery. Synonym: ramus orbitalis arteriae meningeae mediae. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| anterior cerebral artery | <anatomy, artery> One of the two terminal branches (with middle cerebral artery) of the internal carotid; it passes anterior, loops around the genu of the corpus callosum then posteriorly in the interhemispheric fissure along with its fellow of the opposite side, the two being joined by the anterior communicating artery; for descriptive purposes it is divided into two parts: the precommunical part (A2 segment of clinical terminology), supplying branches to the thalamus and corpus striatum, and the postcommunical part, (A2) or pericallosal artery, supplying branches to the cortex of the medial parts of the frontal and parietal lobes. Synonym: arteria cerebri anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus of anterior cerebral artery | <anatomy, artery> An autonomic plexus accompanying the anterior cerebral artery, derived from the internal carotid plexus. Synonym: plexus arteriae cerebri anterioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior cerebral artery | <anatomy, artery> Formed by the bifurcation of the basilar artery; it passes around the cerebral peduncle to reach the medial aspect of the hemisphere; for descriptive purposes it is divided into three parts: 1) the precommunical part (P1 segment of clinical terminology), the part before the junction with the posterior communicating artery, supplying parts of the thalamus, hypothalamus, and midbrain; 2) the postcommunical part (P2), supplying the thalamus, cerebral peduncles, and the choroid plexuses of the lateral and third ventricles; and 3) the terminal or cortical part, supplying the cortex of the temporal (P3) and occipital (P4) lobes. Synonym: arteria cerebri posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atlantic part of vertebral artery | <anatomy, artery> Suboccipital part of vertebral artery. See: vertebral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal part of pulmonary artery | <anatomy, artery> See: right pulmonary artery, left pulmonary artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cavernous part of internal carotid artery | <anatomy, artery> The tortuous portion of the internal carotid artery located within the cavernous sinus; it has numerous small branches. Synonym: pars cavernosa arteriae carotidis internae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervical part of internal carotid artery | <anatomy, artery> The unbranched portion located in the neck. Synonym: pars cervicalis arteriae carotidis internae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| petrous part of internal carotid artery | <anatomy, artery> The part of the internal carotid artery in the carotid canal; its branches are carotidotympanic arteries and the artery of the pterygoid canal. Synonym: pars petrosa arteriae carotidis internae, petrous bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prevertebral part of vertebral artery | See: vertebral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| suboccipital part of vertebral artery | <anatomy, artery> Paired arteries which supply the muscles of the neck, spinal cord and cerebellum. (27 Sep 1997) |
| intracranial part of vertebral artery | See: vertebral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ureteric branches of the patent part of umbilical artery | <anatomy, artery> Supplies pelvic portion of ureter. Synonym: rami ureterici partis patentis arteriae umbilicale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenoma, adrenal cortical | A benign neoplasm of adrenal cortical cells resembling normal adrenal cells histologically but possessing functional autonomy. In general it does not exceed 5 cm in its largest dimension, although benign tumours exceeding 20 cm have been reported. Adrenal cortical adenomas produce hypercortisolism and hyperaldosteronism, but seldom produce adrenogenital syndromes. For the most part the prognosis after surgery is reasonably favourable. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal cortical carcinomas | Large invasive and metastasizing tumours which may cause virilism or Cushing's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
