| posterior median line | The line of intersection of the midsagittal plane with the posterior surface of the body. Synonym: linea mediana posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| posterior median sulcus of medulla oblongata | The longitudinal groove marking the posterior midline of the medulla oblongata; continuous below with the posterior median sulcus of the spinal cord. Synonym: sulcus medianus posterior medullae oblongatae, posterior median fissure of the medulla oblongata. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior median sulcus of spinal cord | A shallow furrow in the median line of the posterior surface of the spinal cord. Synonym: sulcus medianus posterior medullae spinalis, posterior median fissure of spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral root of median nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The part of the median nerve arising from the lateral cord of the brachial plexus. Synonym: radix lateralis nervi mediani. (05 Mar 2000) |
| absorbed dose | The amount of energy absorbed per unit mass of irradiated material at the target site; in radiation therapy, the former unit for absorbed dose is the rad; the current (S.I.) unit is the gray. (05 Mar 2000) |
| air dose | The radiation dose, expressed in roentgens, delivered at a point in free air. Synonym: air dose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bone marrow dose | The cumulative dose to the blood-forming organ from therapeutic or nuclear fallout irradiation; the presumed leukemogenic dose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| booster dose | A dose given at some time after an initial dose to enhance the effect, said usually of antigens for the production of antibodies. (05 Mar 2000) |
| breast dose in mammography | <radiology> 180 mrad / view -- mid-breast dose, guideline: less than 1 rad for 2-view exam (12 Dec 1998) |
| maintenance dose | In chemotherapy, systematic dosage at a level that maintains protection against exacerbation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetically significant dose | <physics, radiobiology> The genetically significant dose is that which, if received by every member of the population, would be expected to produce the same genetic injury to the population as do the actual doses received by the individuals irradiated. Thus, the genetically significant dose is the dose equivalent to the gonads weighted for the age and sex distribution in those members of the irradiated population expected to have offspring. The genetically significant dose is expressed in sieverts (or rem). Acronym: GSD (06 Aug 1998) |
| maximal dose | <pharmacology> The largest amount of a drug or physical procedure that an adult can take with safety. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maximum permissible dose | <radiobiology> Defined by the International Commission on Radiological Protection as the greatest dose of radiation which, in the light of present knowledge, is not expected to cause detectable bodily injury to a person at any time during his lifetime. This dose has been reduced with each Commission report. The MPD is given in terms of acute or chronic exposure of the whole body or of organs, systems, or regions of the body, and differs for persons who are occupationally exposed versus the public at large. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonadal dose | The exposure dose to the male or female gonad, usually from incidental secondary radiation in diagnostic or therapeutic irradiation, or from whole-body irradiation. Synonym: gonadal dose. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gonad dose | The exposure dose to the male or female gonad, usually from incidental secondary radiation in diagnostic or therapeutic irradiation, or from whole-body irradiation. Synonym: gonadal dose. (05 Mar 2000) |
