All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Endocardial Heart Tube	NCIT_C34161	[The paired, longitudinal endothelial-lined channels formed from mesenchyme in the cardiogenic area of the embryo during the third week of development, which will fuse into a single heart tube forming the primitive heart.]
Dual X-ray Absorptiometry	NCIT_C48789	[A technique for scanning bone and measuring bone mineral density (BMD). A DXA scanner produces 2 X-ray beams, each with different energy levels. One beam is high energy while the other is low energy. The amount of x-rays that pass through the bone is measured for each beam. This will vary depending on the thickness of the bone. Based on the difference between the 2 beams, the bone density can be measured.]
Milliliter per Square Meter per Minute	NCIT_C73763	[A dose calculation unit expressed in milliliter(s) per square meter per period of time equal to sixty seconds.]
VIM Gene	NCIT_C48796	[This gene plays an important role in cytoskeletal structure during embryogenesis.]
Millimeter of Mercury per Second	NCIT_C73764	[A rate of inflation or deflation of a manometric device based on the unit of pressure equal to 133,332 Pa or 1.316E10-3 standard atmosphere during period of time equal to one sixtieth of a minute.]
Vimentin	NCIT_C48797	[Vimentin (466 aa, ~54 kDa) is encoded by the human VIM gene. This protein plays a role in the localization of organelles and other cellular components.]
Millipascal	NCIT_C73765	[A SI derived unit of pressure equivalent to one thousandth of one pascal.]
Prostate Specific Antigen Velocity	NCIT_C48798	[The rate of change in the prostate specific antigen (PSA) level over time. PSA is a protein produced by the cells of the prostate, which can be measured in the serum of blood. Increasing levels of the protein may indicate that prostate cancer is present.]
Nanogram per Well	NCIT_C73766	[A unit of mass concentration expressed in nanogram(s) per plate well.]
In Vivo Imaging	NCIT_C48799	[A microscopic visual representation of a biological component inside the body. The imaging procedure often utilizes a variety of diagnostic tools to provide insight regarding disease states, molecular characterization, and biological processes.]
Milliliter per Kilogram per Minute	NCIT_C73760	[A dose calculation unit expressed in milliliter(s) per kilogram per period of time equal to sixty seconds.]
Equivalent	NCIT_C48793	[A person or thing equal to another in value or measure or force or effect or significance etc; being essentially equal to something.]
Milliliter per Square Meter	NCIT_C73761	[A dose calculation unit expressed in milliliter(s) per square meter.]
Summation	NCIT_C48794	[A concluding part of a speech or argument containing a summary of principal points.]
Milliliter per Square Meter per Hour	NCIT_C73762	[A dose calculation unit expressed in milliliter(s) per square meter per period of time equal to sixty minutes.]
Residue	NCIT_C48795	[A single unit within a polymer; a recognizable molecular fragment embedded in a larger molecule.]
Cutaneous Melanoma TNM Finding v6	NCIT_C48791	[A finding about one or more characteristics of cutaneous melanoma, following the rules of the TNM AJCC v6 classification system.]
Nanosecond	NCIT_C73767	[A unit of time equal to one billionth of a second.]
Picosecond	NCIT_C73768	[A unit of time equal to one trillionth of a second.]
Sprays per Nostril	NCIT_C73769	[A dose calculation unit expressed in spray(s) per nostril.]
