| valva trunci pulmonalis | <anatomy, cardiology> The heart valve that divides the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. The pulmonic valve opens when the right ventricle contracts allowing blood to flow into the pulmonary artery. The pulmonic valve on closure prohibits the backwash of unoxygenated blood into the right ventricle. The pulmonic valve has 3 valve cusps. (27 Sep 1997) |

| valvula semilunaris sinistra valvae trunci pulmonalis | Left semilunar cusp of the pulmonary valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus apicalis lobi inferioris arteriae pulmonalis dextrae | <anatomy, artery> Branch (of the inferior lobar branch) of the right pulmonary artery serving the apical segment of the inferior lobe of the right lung.
