| bronchostenosis | Chronic narrowing of a bronchus. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| bronchostomy | Surgical formation of a new opening into a bronchus. Origin: broncho-+ G. Stoma, mouth (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchotome | <surgery> An instrument for cutting into the bronchial tubes. Origin: Gr. Windpipe + to cut. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| bronchotomy | <surgery> An incision into the windpipe or larynx, including the operations of tracheotomy and laryngotomy. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| bronchotracheal | Relating to the trachea and bronchi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchovesicular | Relating to the bronchioles and alveoli in the lungs. Synonym: bronchoalveolar. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchovesicular respiration | Combined bronchial and vesicular respiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchus | <anatomy, chest medicine> Any of the larger air passages of the lungs, having an outer fibrous coat with irregularly placed plates of hyaline cartilage, an interlacing network of smooth muscle and a mucous membrane of columnar ciliated epithelial cells. Origin: L., Gr. Bronchos = windpipe (18 Nov 1997) |
| bronchus intermedius | The portion of the right main bronchus between the upper lobe bronchus and the origin of the middle and inferior lobe bronchi. Synonym: bronchus intermedius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchus principalis dexter | It arises at the bifurcation of the trachea and enters the hilum of the right lung, giving off the superior lobe bronchus and continuing downward to give off the middle and inferior lobe bronchi. It is shorter, of greater caliber, and more nearly-vertical than the left main bronchus, thus, aspirated objects more frequently lodge on the right side. Synonym: bronchus principalis dexter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchus principalis sinister | It arises at the bifurcation of the trachea, passes in front of the oesophagus and enters the hilum of the left lung where it divides into a superior lobe bronchus and an inferior lobe bronchus. It is longer, of narrower caliber, and more nearly-horizontal than the right main bronchus, hence, aspirated objects enter it less frequently. Synonym: bronchus principalis sinister. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchus segmentalis | One of the divisions of the lobar bronchus that supplies a bronchopulmonary segment. In the right lung there are commonly ten: in the superior lobe, the apical (B1) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis apicalis; posterior (B2) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis (BII) posterior; and anterior (B3) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis (BIII) anterior; in the middle lobe, lateral (B4) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis (BIV) lateralis; and medial (B5) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis medialis (BV); in the inferior lobe, superior (B6) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis superior (BVI), medial basal (B7) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis medialis (BVII); anterior basal (B8) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis anterior (BVIII); lateral basal (B9) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis lateralis (BIX); and posterior basal (B10) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis posterior (BX). In the left lung there are commonly nine: in the superior lobe, the apicoposterior (B1+2) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis apicoposterior (BI+I); anterior (B3) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis anterior (BIII); superior lingular (B4) segmental bronchus, bronchus lingularis superior (BIV); and inferior lingular (B5) segmental bronchus, bronchus lingularis inferior (BV); in the inferior lobe, superior (B6) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis superior (BVI); medial basal (B7) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis medialis (cardiacus) (BVII), anterior basal (B8) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis anterior (BVIII); lateral basal (B9) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis lateralis (BIX); and posterior basal (B10) segmental bronchus, bronchus segmentalis basalis posterior (BX). Synonym: bronchus segmentalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bronsted acid | An acid that is a proton donor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bronsted base | Any molecule or ion that combines with a proton; e.g., OH-, CN-, NH3; this definition replaces the older and more limited concepts of base. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bronsted theory | That an acid is a substance, charged or uncharged, liberating hydrogen ions in solution, and that a base is a substance that removes them from solution (e.g., NH4+, CH3COOH, and HSO4- are acids; NH3, CH3COO-, and SO4- are bases); useful in the concept of weak electrolytes and buffers. Compare: Bronsted acid, Bronsted base. (05 Mar 2000) |

| bronchoscopy |
Visual examination of the bronchial passages of the lungs through the tube of an endoscope (usually a curved flexible tube containing fibers that carry light down the tube and project an enlarged image up the tube to the viewer) that is inserted into the upper lungs. Can be used for extraction of material from the lungs. See Endoscopy.
