UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008905	Minicomputers	Small computers that lack the speed, memory capacity, and instructional capability of the full-size computer but usually retain its programmable flexibility. They are larger, faster, and more flexible, powerful, and expensive than microcomputers.	Minicomputer
D009683	Nuclear Medicine	A specialty field of radiology concerned with diagnostic, therapeutic, and investigative use of radioactive compounds.	Atomic Medicine,Nuclear Radiology,Medicine, Atomic,Medicine, Nuclear,Radiology, Nuclear
D010477	Perfusion	Treatment process involving the injection of fluid into an organ or tissue.	Perfusions
D011868	Radioisotopes	Isotopes that exhibit radioactivity and undergo radioactive decay.

D011877	Radionuclide Imaging	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.

D003327	Coronary Disease	An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.
