Label	Id	Description
Venous Valves	D055422	[Flaps within the VEINS that allow the blood to flow only in one direction. They are usually in the medium size veins that carry blood to the heart against gravity.]
Veins	D014680	[The vessels carrying blood away from the CAPILLARY BEDS.]
Diet, Ketogenic	D055423	[A course of food intake that is high in FATS and low in CARBOHYDRATES. This diet provides sufficient PROTEINS for growth but insufficient amount of carbohydrates for the energy needs of the body. A ketogenic diet generates 80-90% of caloric requirements from fats and the remainder from proteins.]
Diet, Carbohydrate-Restricted	D050528	[A diet that contains limited amounts of CARBOHYDRATES. This is in distinction to a regular DIET.]
Cardiac-Gated Imaging Techniques	D055424	[Timing the acquisition of imaging data to specific points in the cardiac cycle to minimize image blurring and other motion artifacts.]
Cardiac Imaging Techniques	D057791	[Visualization of the heart structure and cardiac blood flow for diagnostic evaluation or to guide cardiac procedures via techniques including ENDOSCOPY (cardiac endoscopy, sometimes refered to as cardioscopy), RADIONUCLIDE IMAGING; MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING; TOMOGRAPHY; or ULTRASONOGRAPHY.]
Respiratory-Gated Imaging Techniques	D055425	[Timing the acquisition of imaging data to specific points in the breathing cycle to minimize image blurring and other motion artifacts. The images are used diagnostically and also interventionally to coordinate radiation treatment beam on/off cycles to protect healthy tissues when they move into the beam field during different times in the breathing cycle.]
Diagnostic Imaging	D003952	[Any visual display of structural or functional patterns of organs or tissues for diagnostic evaluation. It includes measuring physiologic and metabolic responses to physical and chemical stimuli, as well as ultramicroscopy.]
Fg Syndrome 5	C564480
Cardiac-Gated Single-Photon Emission Computer-Assisted Tomography	D055426	[Tomography using single-photon emitting RADIONUCLIDES to create images that are captured in times corresponding to various points in the cardiac cycle.]
Tomography, Emission-Computed, Single-Photon	D015899	[A method of computed tomography that uses radionuclides which emit a single photon of a given energy. The camera is rotated 180 or 360 degrees around the patient to capture images at multiple positions along the arc. The computer is then used to reconstruct the transaxial, sagittal, and coronal images from the 3-dimensional distribution of radionuclides in the organ. The advantages of SPECT are that it can be used to observe biochemical and physiological processes as well as size and volume of the organ. The disadvantage is that, unlike positron-emission tomography where the positron-electron annihilation results in the emission of 2 photons at 180 degrees from each other, SPECT requires physical collimation to line up the photons, which results in the loss of many available photons and hence degrades the image.]
Chromosome Xp11.3 Deletion Syndrome	C564481
Growth Differentiation Factor 2	D055427	[A growth differentiation factor that plays a regulatory role as a paracrine factor for a diverse array of cell types during EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT and in the adult tissues. Growth differentiation factor 2 is also a potent regulator of CHONDROGENESIS and was previously referred to as bone morphogenetic protein 9.]
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins	D019485	[Bone-growth regulatory factors that are members of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily of proteins. They are synthesized as large precursor molecules which are cleaved by proteolytic enzymes. The active form can consist of a dimer of two identical proteins or a heterodimer of two related bone morphogenetic proteins.]
Mental Retardation, X-Linked 91	C564482
Growth Differentiation Factor 5	D055428	[A growth differentiation factor that plays a role in early CHONDROGENESIS and joint formation.]
Perfusion Imaging	D055420	[Imaging blood flow to specific organs or areas of the body by following the distribution of radioactively labeled tracers injected in to the blood stream., The creation and display of functional images showing where the blood flow reaches by following the distribution of tracers injected into the blood stream.]
Radionuclide Imaging	D011877	[The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.]
Deafness, X-Linked 5	C564472
Growth Differentiation Factor 9	D055429	[A bone morphogenetic protein that plays an essential role in the regulation of ovarian folliculogenesis.]
