| rotator cuff | <anatomy> The rotator cuff is a tendon formed by three distinct muscles: teres minor, supraspinatus and infraspinatus, which stabilise the head of the humerus within the shoulder joint. Tendinitis or injury to the rotator cuff muscle can make shoulder abduction (lifting the arm out to the side) and external rotation painful. In most cases treatment includes rest, ice and physical therapy to strengthen the shoulder muscles. (13 Nov 1997) |

| rotator cuff tendinitis | <pathology> The rotator cuff is a tendon formed by three distinct muscles: teres minor, supraspinatus and infraspinatus, which stabilise the head of the humerus within the shoulder joint. Tendinitis or injury to the rotator cuff muscle can make shoulder abduction (lifting the arm out to the side) and external rotation painful. In most cases treatment includes rest, ice and physical therapy to strengthen the shoulder muscles. (27 Sep 1997) |
| musculotendinous cuff | rotator cuff of shoulder |
| cuff | Any structure shaped like a cuff. (05 Mar 2000) |
| maestricht monitor | <paleontology> The Mosasaurus Hofmanni. See Mosasaurus. Origin: So called from Maestricht, a town in Holland. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| monitor | 1. One who admonishes; one who warns of faults, informs of duty, or gives advice and instruction by way of reproof or caution. "You need not be a monitor to the king." (Bacon) 2. Hence, specifically, a pupil selected to look to the school in the absence of the instructor, to notice the absence or faults of the scholars, or to instruct a division or class. 3. <zoology> Any large Old World lizard of the genus Varanus; especially, the Egyptian species (V. Niloticus), which is useful because it devours the eggs and young of the crocodile. It is sometimes five or six feet long. 4. [So called from the name given by Captain Ericson, its designer, to the first ship of the kind] An ironclad war vessel, very low in the water, and having one or more heavily-armored revolving turrets, carrying heavy guns. 5. <machinery> A tool holder, as for a lathe, shaped like a low turret, and capable of being revolved on a vertical pivot so as to bring successively the several tools in holds into proper position for cutting. Monitor top, the raised central portion, or clearstory, of a car roof, having low windows along its sides. Origin: L, fr. Monere. See Monition, and cf. Mentor.

| monitor, holter | A technique for long-term, continuous cardiac surveillance. A cassette tape is worn by the patient continuously while carrying out his/her usual activities. The patient simultaneously keeps a diary of palpitations or other symptoms during the recording period. Symptoms of palpitations can later be correlated with the presence or absence of arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms) on the holter tape. The recordings can be analyzed by a doctor at a later date. Named for the late american biophysicist norman holter. (12 Dec 1998) |
| water monitor | <zoology> A very large lizard (Varanaus salvator) native of India. It frequents the borders of streams and swims actively. It becomes five or six feet long. Called also two-banded monitor, and kabaragoya. The name is also applied to other aquatic monitors. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| waveform monitor | <microscopy> A cathode-ray oscilloscope that can conveniently display the video signal. See: video waveform. (05 Aug 1998) |
| 24-hour cardiac monitor | <apparatus> A recording device, worn by the patient for the purpose of monitoring the hearts rhythm and rate, over a period of 24 hours. (27 Sep 1997) |
| analog-digital conversion | The process of converting analog data such as continually measured voltage to discrete, digital form. (12 Dec 1998) |
| angiography, digital subtraction | A method of delineating blood vessels by subtracting a tissue background image from an image of tissue plus intravascular contrast material that attenuates the X-ray photons. The background image is determined from a digitised image taken a few moments before injection of the contrast material. The resulting angiogram is a high-contrast image of the vessel. This subtraction technique allows extraction of a high-intensity signal from the superimposed background information. The image is thus the result of the differential absorption of X-rays by different tissues. (12 Dec 1998) |
| annular part of fibrous digital sheath | One of the two circular fibrous bands of the fibrous sheaths of the fingers and toes attached to the shaft of the proximal and middle phalanges. Synonym: pars annularis vaginae fibrosae, annular pulley, annulus of fibrous sheath, ligamentum annulare digitorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiography, dental, digital | A rapid, low-dose, digital imaging system using a small intraoral sensor instead of radiographic film, an intensifying screen, and a charge-coupled device. It presents the possibility of reduced patient exposure and minimal distortion, although resolution and latitude are inferior to standard dental radiography. A receiver is placed in the mouth, routing signals to a computer which images the signals on a screen or in print. It includes digitizing from X-ray film or any other detector. (12 Dec 1998) |
| palmar digital veins | Paired venae comitantes of the proper and common digital arteries that empty into the superficial palmar venous arch. Synonym: venae digitales palmares. (05 Mar 2000) |
