| superior temporal venule of retina | The venule that passes from the upper lateral (temporal) part of the retina to join the central vein. Synonym: venula temporalis retinae superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior surface of petrous part of temporal bone | Inferior surface of petrous part of the temporal bone; the portion of the petrous part of the temporal bone that contributes to the external base of the skull. Synonym: facies inferior partis petrosae ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior temporal arteriole of retina | The branch of the central artery of the retina that passes laterally below the macula to supply the lower lateral or temporal part of the retina. Synonym: arteriola temporalis retinae inferior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior temporal convolution | A sagittal convolution on the inferolateral border of the temporal lobe of the cerebrum, separated from the middle temporal gyrus by the inferior temporal sulcus. On the inferior surface of the temporal lobe it is separated from the medial occipitotemporal gyrus by the occipitotemporal sulcus. It includes the lateral occipitotemporal gyrus. Synonym: gyrus temporalis inferior, inferior temporal convolution, third temporal convolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior temporal gyrus | A sagittal convolution on the inferolateral border of the temporal lobe of the cerebrum, separated from the middle temporal gyrus by the inferior temporal sulcus. On the inferior surface of the temporal lobe it is separated from the medial occipitotemporal gyrus by the occipitotemporal sulcus. It includes the lateral occipitotemporal gyrus. Synonym: gyrus temporalis inferior, inferior temporal convolution, third temporal convolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior temporal line | The lower of two curved lines on the parietal bone; it marks the outer limit of attachment of the temporalis muscle. Synonym: linea temporalis inferior, temporal ridge. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior temporal sulcus | The sulcus on the basal aspect of the temporal lobe that separates the fusiform gyrus from the inferior temporal gyrus on its lateral side. Synonym: sulcus temporalis inferior, Clevenger's fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior temporal venule of retina | The small vein that passes from the lower lateral (temporal) part of the retina to enter the central vein. Synonym: venula temporalis retinae inferior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intermediate temporal artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the insular part of the middle cerebral artery supplying the cortex of the temporal lobe between the anterior and posterior temporal arteries. Synonym: arteria temporalis intermedia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| occipital border of temporal bone | That part of the temporal bone that articulates with the occipital squama. Synonym: margo occipitalis ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| temporal | <anatomy> Of or pertaining to the temple or temples; as, the temporal bone; a temporal artery. Temporal bone, a very complex bone situated in the side of the skull of most mammals and containing the organ of hearing. It consists of an expanded squamosal portion above the ear, corresponding to the squamosal and zygoma of the lower vertebrates, and a thickened basal petrosal and mastoid portion, corresponding to the periotic and tympanic bones of the lower vertebrates. Origin: L. Temporalis, fr. Tempora the temples: cf. F. Temporal. See Temple a part of the head. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| temporal aponeurosis | The fascia covering the temporal muscle; it is composed of two layers, lamina superficialis and lamina profunda; both attach above to the superior temporal line but diverge inferiorly to attach to the lateral and medial surfaces of the zygomatic arch. Synonym: fascia temporalis, temporal aponeurosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| temporal apophysis | The nipple-like projection of the petrous part of the temporal bone. Synonym: processus mastoideus, mastoid bone, temporal apophysis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| temporal arteries | Arteries arising from the external carotid or the maxillary artery and distributing to the temporal region. (12 Dec 1998) |
