| RVAW | right ventricle anterior wall |
|---|---|
| RVI | relative value index; right ventricle infarction |
| RVWT | right ventricle wall thickness |

| neoplasms, connective tissue | Neoplasms composed of connective tissue, including elastic, mucous, reticular, osseous, and cartilaginous tissue. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in connective tissue. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| neoplasms, cystic, mucinous, and serous | Neoplasms containing cyst-like formations or producing mucin or serum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, ductal, lobular, and medullary | Neoplasms, usually carcinoma, located within the centre of an organ or within small lobes, and in the case of the breast, intraductally. The emphasis of the name is on the location of the neoplastic tissue rather than on its histological type. most cancers of this type are located in the breast. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, fibroepithelial | Neoplasms composed of fibrous and epithelial tissue. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in fibrous tissue or epithelium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, fibrous tissue | Neoplasms composed of fibrous tissue, the ordinary connective tissue of the body, made up largely of yellow or white fibres. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in fibrous tissue. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, germ cell and embryonal | Neoplasms composed of primordial germ cells of embryonic gonads or of elements of the germ layers of the embryo. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in the gonads or present in an embryo or foetus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, glandular and epithelial | Neoplasms composed of glandular tissue, an aggregation of epithelial cells that elaborate secretions, and of any type of epithelium itself. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in the various glands or in epithelial tissue. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, gonadal tissue | Neoplasms composed of ovarian or testicular tissue. This concept does not refer to neoplasms located in the ovaries or testes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, hormone-dependent | Certain tumours that 1) arise in organs that are normally dependent on specific hormones and 2) are stimulated or caused to regress by manipulation of the endocrine environment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, mesothelial | Neoplasms composed of tissue of the mesothelium, the layer of flat cells, derived from the mesoderm, which lines the body cavity of the embryo. In the adult it forms the simple squamous epithelium which covers all true serous membranes (peritoneum, pericardium, pleura). The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in these organs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, multiple primary | Two or more abnormal growths of tissue occurring simultaneously. The neoplasms are histologically different and may be found in the same or different sites. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, muscle tissue | Neoplasms composed of muscle tissue: skeletal, cardiac, or smooth. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in muscles. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, nerve tissue | Neoplasms composed of nerve tissue. This concept does not refer to neoplasms located in the nervous system or its component nerves. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, neuroepithelial | Neoplasms composed of epithelial cells of the nervous system. This concept does not refer to neoplasms located in the nervous system, nerves, or neural tissue. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplasms, posttraumatic | Cancers, tumours, or other neoplasms caused by or resulting from trauma or other non-radiation injuries. (12 Dec 1998) |
