CLINICAL MEASUREMENT - ANNOTATIONS

The Clinical Measurement Ontology (CMO), Measurement Methods Ontology (MMO), and Experimental Condition Ontology (XCO) are currently being developed at the Rat Genome Database. For more information about these vocabularies please see Shimoyama et al. Three ontologies to define phenotype measurement data. Front Genet. 2012;3:87.

Definition:The portion of the cross-sectional area of the tibia, measured midway between the two ends of the bone, that corresponds to the area circumscribed by the endosteum, the tissue lining the medullary or marrow cavity in the shaft of a long bone, i.e. the cross-sectional area of the medullary cavity of the tibia at midshaft. The cross-sectional area of the tibia is the extent of a plane through, that is, perpendicular to the longest axis of the tibia, the medial and larger of the two bones of the lower leg of bipeds or hindlimb of quadrupeds which articulates with the femur, fibula, and talus.
