| lamina cribrosa ossis ethmoidalis | A horizontal lamina from which are suspended the labyrinth, on either side, and the lamina perpendicularis in the centre; it fits into the ethmoidal notch of the frontal bone and supports the olfactory lobes of the cerebrum, being pierced with numerous openings for the passage of the olfactory nerves. Synonym: lamina cribrosa ossis ethmoidalis, cribrum, sieve bone, sieve plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina horizontalis ossis palatini | The part of the palatine bone that forms the posterior part (approximately one third) of the bony palate. Synonym: lamina horizontalis ossis palatini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina orbitalis ossis ethmoidalis | A thin plate of ethmoid bone forming part of the medial wall of the orbit and the lateral wall for the ethmoidal labyrinth. Synonym: lamina orbitalis ossis ethmoidalis, lamina papyracea, orbital lamina of ethmoid bone, orbital layer of ethmoid bone, orbital plate, paper plate, papyraceous plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina perpendicularis ossis ethmoidalis | A thin plate of bone projecting downward from the crista galli of the ethmoid; it forms part of the nasal septum. Synonym: lamina perpendicularis ossis ethmoidalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina perpendicularis ossis palatini | The part of the palatine bone that extends vertically upward from the horizontal lamina; it forms part of the lateral wall of the nasal cavity. Synonym: lamina perpendicularis ossis palatini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| foramen caecum ossis frontalis | <anatomy> Blind or caecal foramen of the frontal bone; the blind foramen formed immediately anterior to the crista galli by a notch at the lower end of the frontal crest and its articulation with the ethmoid bone. It is insignificant postnatally, but gives passage to vessels during development. Synonym: foramen caecum ossis frontalis, blind foramen of frontal bone, caecal foramen of frontal bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fossa scaphoidea ossis sphenoidalis | A boat-shaped hollow. A longitudinal hollow on the posterior surface of the superior portion (root) of the medial pterygoid plate; it gives origin to the tensor veli palati muscle. Synonym: fossa scaphoidea ossis sphenoidalis, Cruveilhier's fossa, fossa navicularis Cruveilhier, scaphoid fossa of sphenoid bone. Synonym: scapha. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fovea capitis ossis femoris | A depression on the extremity of the head of the femur giving attachment to the ligamentum teres femoris. Synonym: fovea capitis ossis femoris, pit of head of femur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| linea arcuata ossis ilii | The iliac portion of the linea terminalis of the bony pelvis. Synonym: linea arcuata ossis ilii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus | A standard medical dictionary contains over 13 pages full of entries to the word ramus. Why? because ramus in latin means a branch and all sorts of anatomic items such as blood vessels and nerves quite naturally have branches. So, for example, medicine is plagued with the likes of the ramus acetabularis arteriae circumflexae femoris medialis which is simply the branch of an artery that goes to the acetabulum (the socket) of the hip joint. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ramus acetabularis | An arterial branch that supplies the acetabulum; two arteries, the obturator and the medial femoral circumflex, have such branches. Synonym: ramus acetabularis, acetabular artery, arteria acetabuli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus acromialis arteriae suprascapularis | <anatomy, artery> Branch of suprascapular artery which pierces the origin of the trapezius muscle to run to the acromion; anastomoses, acromial branch of thoracoacromial artery. Synonym: ramus acromialis arteriae suprascapularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus acromialis arteriae thoracoacromialis | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the thoracoacromial artery that runs over the coracoid process and under the deltoid muscle. Synonym: ramus acromialis arteriae thoracoacromialis, acromial artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus alveolaris superior medius nervi infraorbitalis | Synonym: middle superior alveolar branch of infraorbital nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
