| rotational transform | <radiobiology> \iota = 2PI/q) Due to the combination of applied toroidal field and induced poloidal field, the magnetic field lines wind helically around the torus (and on most flux surfaces they fill the surface ergodically). The rotational transform is a measure of this helicity, and is defined as the average angle the field line shifts in the poloidal direction per complete circuit in the toroidal direction. The quantity q = 2\pi / \iota is known as the "safety factor'' because of its role in stability theory. A magnetic field configuration is said to posses rotational transform if the lines of force, after one complete circuit around the configuration (for example, a torus) do not simply close exactly on themselves, but are instead rotated through some angle about the magnetic axies.

| atherectomy | <procedure, surgery> The surgical removal of arteriosclerotic plaque (an atheroma) from the inner surface of an blood vessel. This procedure is employed most commonly in major arterial vessels (for example coronary arteries, carotid arteries, arteries in the limbs) that have suffered from the progressive occlusive effects of atherosclerosis. This procedure may be accomplished using a balloon-tipped catheter (angioplasty), a laser, a small drill-tipped catheter or by conventional surgical incision. (27 Sep 1997) |
| atherectomy, coronary | Percutaneous transluminal procedure for removing atheromatous plaque from the coronary arteries. Both directional (for removing focal atheromas) and rotational (for removing concentric atheromatous plaque) atherectomy devices have been used. (12 Dec 1998) |
| coronary atherectomy | Instrumental removal, via catheter, of atheromas in coronary arteries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| directional atherectomy | Removal of coronary atherometer with instrumented catheter. (05 Mar 2000) |
