| sinuatrial chamber | <anatomy> The common chamber formed by the single embryonic atrium and the right and left horns of the sinus venosus. (20 Jun 2000) |

| artery to the sinuatrial node | Ascending atrial branch, usually (55%) arising from the anterior stem of the right coronary artery (but 35-45% arising from the circumflex branch of the left coronary artery), which runs around the base of the superior vena cava to reach the sinuatrial node. Synonym: ramus nodi sinuatrialis arteriae coronaria dextra, branch to sinuatrial node, sinuatrial nodal branch of right coronary artery, sinuatrial node artery. (05 Mar 2000) |

| sinuatrial | <anatomy> Relating to the sinus venosus and the right atrium of the heart. Synonym: sinuatrial. (20 Jun 2000) |
| sinuatrial nodal artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch usually of the right coronary artery that supplies the sinuatrial node. Synonym: sinus node artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinuatrial node | <anatomy, cardiology, physiology> The impulse generating (pacemaker) tissue located in the right atrium, under the epicardium at the upper end of the sulcus terminalis. The specialised cardiac muscle fibres generate cardiac impulses that normally acts as the pacemaker of the cardiac conduction system. Normal impulses start in the sinoatrial node and are transmitted to the ventricles, through the atrioventricular node and into the bundle of His. Synonym: nodus sinuatrialis, atrionector, Flack's node, Keith and Flack node, Keith's node, Koch's node, sinoatrial node, sinus node. (20 Jun 2000) |
| abnormal heart chamber dimensions | <radiology> Left ventricular volume overload, left ventricular hypertrophy, right ventricular volume overload, right ventricular hypertrophy, fixed subvalvular aortic stenosis, hypoplastic left/right ventricle; common ventricle, congestive cardiomyopathy (12 Dec 1998) |
| air chamber | 1. A chamber or cavity filled with air, in an animal or plant. 2. A cavity containing air to act as a spring for equalizing the flow of a liquid in a pump or other hydraulic machine. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| altitude chamber | A decompression chamber for simulating a high altitude environment, particularly its low barometric pressure. Synonym: high altitude chamber. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anechoic chamber | A room designed to absorb all sound so as to eliminate all echoes; used for isolation and sound research on human subjects. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior chamber | The space in the eye, filled with aqueous humor, bounded anteriorly by the cornea and a small portion of the sclera and posteriorly by a small portion of the ciliary body, the iris, and that part of the crystalline lens which presents through the pupil. (12 Dec 1998) |
| anterior chamber cleavage syndrome | <syndrome> A congenital disorder originating from faulty separation of embryonic structures; it results in bilateral central corneal opacities, with an anterior ring attachment of the iridic pupillary border and anterior polar cataracts; associated with short-limbed dwarfism; autosomal dominant inheritance. See: iridocorneal endothelial syndrome. Synonym: Peters' anomaly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior chamber of eye | The space between the cornea anteriorly and the iris/pupil posteriorly, filled with a watery fluid (aqueous humor) and communicating through the pupil with the posterior chamber. Synonym: camera anterior bulbi, camera oculi anterior, camera oculi major. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior chamber trabecula | Tissue at the angle of the anterior chamber through which aqueous humor exits from the eye. (05 Mar 2000) |
| baffle chamber | In incinerator design, a chamber designed to settle fly ash and coarse particulate matter by changing the direction and reducing the velocity of the combustion gases. (05 Dec 1998) |
| Boyden chamber | <apparatus> Simple chamber used to test for chemotaxis, especially of leucocytes. Consists of two compartments separated by a millipore filter (3-8 m pore size), chemotactic factor is placed in one compartment and the gradient develops across the thickness of the filter (ca 150 m). Cell movement into the filter is measured after an incubation period less than the time taken for the gradient to decay. See: checkerboard assay. (18 Nov 1997) |
