| frequency distribution | A statistical description of raw data in terms of the number or frequency of items characterised by each of a series or range of values of a continuous variable. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| frequency domain | The expression of a function by its amplitude and phase at each component frequency, usually as determined by Fourier analysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| frequency encoding | In magnetic resonance imaging, a method of varying the magnetic field strength with location to encode the location of each voxel uniquely in one direction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| frequency of micturition | Micturition at short intervals; it may result from increased urine formation, decreased bladder capacity, or lower urinary tract irritation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| frequency of occurrence | The number of times a given event occurs at specified sample points during a defined period. (07 Apr 1998) |
| frequency spectrum | The range of frequencies in a signal, used to describe the resolving power of an imaging system in radiology. (05 Mar 2000) |
| frequency, urinary | Urinating too often, at too frequent intervals, not due to an unusually large volume of urine, but rather to a decrease in the capacity of the bladder to hold urine. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fundamental frequency | The principal component of a sound wave, which has the greatest wavelength, tone produced by the vibration of the vocal folds before the air reaches any cavities. (05 Mar 2000) |
| low frequency transduction | Specialised transduction in which only a small portion of the prophage particles, because of their defectiveness, are able to develop sufficiently to serve as effective transducing agents. (05 Mar 2000) |
