| abdominal ballottement | <procedure> Examination of the abdomen by palpation to detect excessive amounts of fluid (ascites) by causing organs to bob up and down in the fluid milieu. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| ballottement | 1. Manoeuvre used in physical examination to estimate the size of an organ not near the surface, particularly when there is ascites, by a flicking motion of the hand or fingers similar to that of dribbling a basketball. 2. An obsolete method of diagnosis of pregnancy: with the tip of the forefinger in the vagina, a sharp tap is made against the lower segment of the uterus; the foetus, if present, is tossed upward and (if the finger is retained in place) will be felt to strike against the wall of the uterus as it falls back. Origin: Fr. Balloter, to toss up (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal ballottement | A manoeuvre in which the kidney is moved by pressure from behind, allowing it to be felt between the hands and its size, shape, and mobility determined. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accommodation, ocular | The dioptric adjustment of the eye (to attain maximal sharpness of retinal imagery for an object of regard) referring to the ability, to the mechanism, or to the process. It is the effecting of refractive changes by changes in the shape of the crystalline lens. Loosely, it refers to ocular adjustments for vision at various distances. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adaptation, ocular | The adjustment of the eye to variations in the intensity of light. Light adaptation is the adjustment of the eye when the light threshold is increased; dark adaptation when the light is greatly reduced. (12 Dec 1998) |
| albinism, ocular | Albinism affecting the eye in which pigment of the hair and skin is normal or only slightly diluted. The classic type is x-linked (nettleship-falls), but an autosomal recessive form also exists. Ocular abnormalities may include reduced pigmentation of the iris, nystagmus, photophobia, strabismus, and decreased visual acuity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anterior ocular segment | That portion of the eye comprising the cornea, iris, lens, and their associated chambers and adnexa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardinal ocular movements | Eye rotations to the right and left, upward to the right and left, and downward to the right and left, to diagnose positions of gaze. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ramsden's ocular | An eyepiece of a microscope, consisting of two planoconvex lenses with convexities turned to each other. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vestibular ocular reflex | <clinical sign> Reflex movement of the eyes in the opposite direction to that which the head is moved, e.g., the eyes being lowered as the head is raised, and the reverse (Cantelli's sign); an indication of functional integrity of the brainstem tegmental pathways and cranial nerves involved in eye movement. Synonym: vestibular ocular reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reflex, vestibulo-ocular | A reflex wherein impulses are conveyed from the cupulas of the saemicircular canals and from the otolithic membrane of the saccule and utricle via the vestibular nuclei of the brainstem and the median longitudinal fasciculus to the oculomotor nerve nuclei. It functions to maintain a stable retinal image during head rotation by generating appropriate compensatory eye movements. (12 Dec 1998) |
| refraction, ocular | Refraction of light effected by the media of the eye. It also includes the determination of the refractive state and refractive correction. (12 Dec 1998) |
| goniometre ocular | <microscopy> A special type of ocular fitted with crosslines and a graduated head which rotates the crosslines to facilitate the measuring of angles, as in crystallography. (05 Aug 1998) |
| retro-ocular | <anatomy> Behind the pons. Origin: L. Bulbus = bulb (18 Nov 1997) |
| cogwheel ocular movements | Loose, jerky ocular rotations replacing smooth following rotations. (05 Mar 2000) |
