  2. Occlusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occlusion

    Occlusion (dentistry), the manner in which the upper and lower teeth come together when the mouth is closed; Occlusion miliaria, a skin condition; Occlusive dressing, an air- and water-tight trauma dressing used in first aid; Vascular occlusion, blockage of a blood vessel

  3. Penumbra (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penumbra_(medicine)

    The penumbral area can also be detected based upon an integration of three factors. These factors include: the site of vessel occlusion, the extent of oligaemia (hypoperfused area surrounding the penumbra, but not at risk of infarction [1]) at that moment, and the mismatch between this perfusion defect and the area of the brain already ...

  4. Arterial occlusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arterial_occlusion

    Arterial occlusion is a condition involving partial or complete blockage of blood flow through an artery. Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood to body tissues. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] An occlusion of arteries disrupts oxygen and blood supply to tissues, leading to ischemia . [ 1 ]

    Perspective, relative size, occultation and texture gradients all contribute to the three-dimensional appearance of this photo. Depth perception is the ability to perceive distance to objects in the world using the visual system and visual perception.

  7. Occlusion effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occlusion_effect

    Active occlusion algorithms are needed to help people with severe hearing loss adequately. If a person suffers from "near-normal low-frequency hearing and mild to moderate hearing loss of up to 70 dB at mid and high frequencies," hearing aids with increased vent size or hollow ear-molds/domes are more suitable for them in lessening the extent ...

  8. Stereopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereopsis

    Individuals have been found to integrate the various stimuli, for example stereoscopic cues and motion occlusion, in different ways. [ 18 ] How the brain combines the different cues – including stereo, motion, vergence angle and monocular cues – for sensing motion in depth and 3D object position is an area of active research in vision ...

  9. Malocclusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malocclusion

    The word derives from mal- 'incorrect' and occlusion 'the manner in which opposing teeth meet'. The malocclusion classification is based on the relationship of the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary first molar and the buccal groove of the mandibular first molar. If this molar relationship exists, then the teeth can align into normal occlusion.
