| Isapt | spatial peak, temporal average intensity [pulse] |
| Isata | spatial average, temporal average intensity [pulse] |
| giant follicular thyroiditis | A variant of Hashimoto's thyroiditis in which lymphocytic infiltrate in thyroid has formed into giant follicles. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| giant gastric folds | Enlarged gastric submucosal ridges covered by hyperplastic mucosa, as seen in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, Menetrier's disease, and hypertrophic hypersecretory gastropathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| giant hairy nevus | <dermatology> These large pigmented (often hairy) congenital nevi are important because of their increased risk (10 to 15%) of conversion into malignant melanoma. A biopsy can confirm if cells have turned malignant. Any change in a pre-existing nevus should prompt a physician evaluation. (17 Dec 1997) |
| giant hives | A vascular reaction involving the deep dermis or subcutaneous or submucal tissues, representing localised oedema caused by dilatation and increased permeability of the capillaries and characterised by development of giant wheals. (18 Nov 1997) |
| giant hypertrophy of gastric mucosa | Gastric mucosal hyperplasia, either mucoid or glandular; the latter type may be associated with the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Synonym: giant hypertrophy of gastric mucosa, hypertrophic gastritis, Menetrier's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| giant lymph node hyperplasia | Large benign, hyperplastic lymph nodes. The more common hyaline vascular subtype is characterised by small hyaline vascular follicles and interfollicular capillary proliferations. Plasma cells are often present and represent another subtype with the plasma cells containing IgM and IgA. (12 Dec 1998) |
| giant melanosome | A large spherical melanosome (1 to 6 u in diameter) formed in the cytoplasm of melanocytes in cafe-au-lait spots and other melanocytic disorders. Synonym: macromelanosome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| giant osteoid osteoma | A benign, painful, tumour of bone characterised by the formation of osteoid tissue, primitive bone and calcified tissue. It occurs frequently in the spine of young persons. (12 Dec 1998) |
| giant pigmented nevus | These large pigmented (often hairy) congenital nevi are important because of their increased risk (10 to 15%) of conversion into malignant melanoma. A biopsy can confirm if cells have turned malignant. Any change in a pre-existing nevus should prompt a physician evaluation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| giant urticaria | A vascular reaction involving the deep dermis or subcutaneous or submucal tissues, representing localised oedema caused by dilatation and increased permeability of the capillaries and characterised by development of giant wheals. (18 Nov 1997) |
| congenital giant pigmented nevus | These large pigmented (often hairy) congenital nevi are important because of their increased risk (10 to 15%) of conversion into malignant melanoma. A biopsy can confirm if cells have turned malignant. Any change in a pre-existing nevus should prompt a physician evaluation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| squid giant axon | <physiology> Large axons, up to 1mm in diameter, that innervate the mantle of the squid. Because of their large size, many of the pioneering investigations of the mechanisms underlying resting and action potentials in excitable cells were done on these fibres. (10 Mar 1998) |
| Langhans'-type giant cells | Multinucleated giant cell's seen in tuberculosis and other granulomas; the nuclei are arranged in an arciform manner at the periphery of the cell's. Synonym: Langhans'-type giant cells. Synonym: cytotrophoblastic cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior auricular branches of superficial temporal artery | <anatomy, artery> Distribution, auricle, earlobe and external acoustic meatus. Synonym: rami auriculares anteriores arteriae temporalis superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior surface of petrous part of temporal bone | The surface of the petrous part of the temporal bone contributing to the floor of the middle cranial fossa. Synonym: facies anterior partis petrosae ossis temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
