| rotator muscles | Deepest of the three layers of transversospinalis muscles, chiefly developed in the thoracic region; they arise from the transverse process of one vertebra and are inserted into the root of the spinous process of the next two or three vertebrae above; action, traditionally described as a column, it is more likely that these muscles, provided with a very high density of muscle spindles, are organs of proprioception; nerve supply, dorsal primary rami of the spinal nerves. Synonym: musculi rotatores, rotator muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |

| thoracic rotator muscles | The rotators of the thoracic vertebrae. Synonym: musculi rotatores thoracis, thoracic rotator muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lumbar rotator muscles | The rotator muscles of the lumbar vertebrae. Synonym: musculi rotatores lumborum, lumbar rotator muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial rotator | A muscle that turns a part medialward. See: invertor. Synonym: medial rotator. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rotator | 1. <anatomy> That which gives a rotary or rolling motion, as a muscle which partially rotates or turns some part on its axis. 2. <chemistry> A revolving reverberatory furnace. Origin: L. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| 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) |
| faraday rotator | <radiobiology> A device which rotates the plane of polarization of an optical-light pulse, typically by using a glass disc suitably doped with a magnetic ion and placed in a magnetic field. These devices are used to isolate (protect) a laser amplifier chain against back-reflection from the laser target, the Faraday rotator in this case gives a 90-degree phase change on the round trip, so that the returning light is rejected by a polarizer which transmits the outgoing light. Magnetised plasmas also display the Faraday rotation effect of light waves propagating along the magnetic field lines. (09 Oct 1997) |
| abdominal muscles | A large group of muscles in the front of the abdomen that assists in the regular breathing movement and supports the muscles of the spine while lifting and keeping abdominal organs such as the intestines in place. (12 Dec 1998) |
| antagonistic muscles | Those having an opposite function, the contraction of one having the potential, in theory, to "neutralise" that of the other. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior cervical intertransversarii muscles | Origin, anterior tubercle of cervical transverse process; insertion, anterior tubercle of next superior transverse process; action, abducts cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, ventral branch of cervical nerves. Synonym: musculi intertransversarii anteriores cervicis, anterior cervical intertransverse muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior cervical intertransverse muscles | Origin, anterior tubercle of cervical transverse process; insertion, anterior tubercle of next superior transverse process; action, abducts cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, ventral branch of cervical nerves. Synonym: musculi intertransversarii anteriores cervicis, anterior cervical intertransverse muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antigravity muscles | The muscle's that maintain the posture characteristic of a given animal species. In most mammals they are the extensor muscle's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aponeurosis of vastus muscles | See: patellar retinaculum, medial patellar retinaculum, lateral patellar retinaculum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arrector pili muscles | Bundles of smooth muscle fibres, attached to the deep part of the hair follicles, passing outward alongside the sebaceous glands to the papillary layer of the corium; they act to pull the hairs erect, causing "goose bumps" or "goose flesh" (cutis anserina). Synonym: musculi arrectores pilorum, arrectores pilorum, erector muscles of hairs. (05 Mar 2000) |
