| urethral pressure profile | The continual recording of pressure through a hole in the side of a small catheter as it is pulled (at a constant rate while either water or a gas is infused through the hole) from a point within the bladder, through the vesical neck, and down the entire urethra; a form of resistance measurement which gives a tracing indicative of the functional length of the urethra and the points of maximal urethral resistance.

| lipid profile | Pattern of lipids in the blood. (A lipid profile usually includes the total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (hdl) cholesterol, triglycerides, and the calculated low density lipoprotein (ldl) cholesterol. (12 Dec 1998) |
| liver profile | <investigation> A test that measures the blood serum level of several enzymes produced by the liver. An elevated liver function test is a sign of possible liver damage. Examples include: prothrombin time, PTT, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, alkaline phosphatase and serum albumin.
