| orthodontic band | A thin strip of metal closely adapted to the crown of a tooth to which wires may be attached for tooth movement. (05 Mar 2000) |

| elastic band fixation | The stabilization of fractured segments of the jaws by means of intermaxillary elastics applied to splints or appliances. (05 Mar 2000) |
| erythrocyte membrane protein band 4.1 | See Elliptocytosis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| uncus band of Giacomini | A slender whitish band, the attenuated anterior continuation of the dentate gyrus (fascia dentata), crossing transversally the surface of the recurved part of the uncus gyri parahippocampalis. Synonym: band of Giacomini, cauda fasciae dentatae, frenulum of Giacomini, tail of dentate gyrus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Z band | <cell biology> The line formed where actin filaments attach between two sarcomeres. (11 May 1997) |
| zonular band | Fibres of the articular capsule of the hip joint encircling the neck of the femur. Synonym: orbicular zone, ring ligament, zonular band. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ladd's band | A peritoneal attachment of an incompletely rotated caecum, causing obstruction of the duodenum, found in malrotation of the intestine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Lane's band | A congenital band on the distal ileum causing stasis. Synonym: Lane's kink. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lupus band test | A direct immunofluorescent technique for demonstrating a band of immunoglobulins at the dermal-epidermal junction of the skin of patients with lupus erythematosus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aberrant ventricular conduction | Abnormal intraventricular conduction of a supraventricular beat, especially where surrounding beats are normally conducted. Synonym: ventricular aberration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aortico-left ventricular tunnel | Congenital connection between the aorta above exit of coronary arteries and the left ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arrhythmias, ventricular | Abnormal rapid heart rhythms (arrhythmias) that originate in the lower chambers of the heart (the ventricles). Ventricular arrhythmias include ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation. Both are life threatening arrhythmias most commonly associated with heart attacks or scarring of the heart muscle from previous heart attack. (12 Dec 1998) |
| arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia | A congenital cardiomyopathy in which transmural infiltration of adipose tissue results in weakness and aneurysmal bulging of the infundibulum, apex, and posterior basilar region of the right ventricle and leads to ventricular tachycardia arising in the right ventricle. (12 Dec 1998) |
| atrial ventricular canal defect | A defect caused by deficient or absent septal tissue immediately above and below the normal level of the atrioventricular valves, including the region normally occupied by the A-V septum in hearts with two ventricles. The A-V valves are abnormal to a varying degree. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bidirectional ventricular tachycardia | Ventricular tachycardia in which the QRS complexes in the electrocardiogram are alternately mainly positive and mainly negative; many such cases may represent ventricular tachycardia with alternating forms of aberrant ventricular conduction. (05 Mar 2000) |
