| vertex | 1. <anatomy> A turning point; the principal or highest point; top; summit; crown; apex. Specifically: the top, or crown, of the head. 2. <astronomy> The zenith, or the point of the heavens directly overhead. 3. <mathematics> The point in any figure opposite to, and farthest from, the base; the terminating point of some particular line or lines in a figure or a curve; the top, or the point opposite the base. Vertex of a curve, the point in which the axis pierces the surface. The principal vertex of a conic section is, in the parabola, the vertex of the axis of the curve: in the ellipse, either extremity of either axis, but usually the left-hand vertex of the transverse axis; in the hyperbola, either vertex, but usually the right-hand vertex of the transverse axis. Origin: L. Vertex, -icis, a whirl, top of the head, top, summit, from vertere to turn. See Verse, and cf. Vortex. (29 Oct 1998) |

| presentation, vertex | In a vertex presentation, the top of the baby's head comes first at delivery. The vertex here refers specifically to the top of the head the word vertex in latin means a whirlpool, whirlwind, top of the mountain, or the top of the head. Why top of the head ? because the hairs on the top of the head often form a whorl, a whirl-like pattern. (12 Dec 1998) |
| submental vertex projection | Radiographic projection devised to obtain direct visualization of the base of the skull. Synonym: axial view, base projection, submental vertex projection, submentovertical projection, verticosubmental view. (05 Mar 2000) |
| submental vertex radiograph | A radiographic projection showing the base of the skull, positions of the mandibular condyles, and zygomatic arches. Synonym: base view, submental vertex radiograph. (05 Mar 2000) |

| annulus fibrosus cordis | One of four fibrous rings that surround atrioventricular and arterial orifices of the heart, providing attachment for the valve leaflets and maintaining patency of the orifice. As part of the fibrous skeleton of the heart, the fibrous rings also provide origin and insertion for the myocardium. Synonym: annulus fibrosus cordis, annulus fibrosus, coronary tendon, fibrous ring, Lower's ring. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apex cordis | The blunt extremity of the heart formed by the left ventricle. See: apex beat. Synonym: apex cordis, vertex cordis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ataxia cordis | <cardiology> A condition where there is disorganised electrical conduction in the atria, resulting in ineffective pumping of blood into the ventricle. Acronym: AF (02 Jan 1998) |
| atrium cordis | The upper chamber of each half of the heart. Synonym: atrium cordis, atrium. Left atrium of heart, atrium of the left side of the heart which receives the blood from the pulmonary veins. Synonym: atrium sinistrum cordis, atrium pulmonale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atrium dextrum cordis | Right atrium, the atrium of the right side of the heart which receives the blood from the venae cavae and coronary sinus. Synonym: atrium dextrum cordis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atrium sinistrum cordis | left atrium of heart |
