Angiography

Medical


Definition:

  • (a.) Of, pertaining to, or having to do with, the art of healing disease, or the science of medicine; as, the medical profession; medical services; a medical dictionary; medical jurisprudence.
  • (a.) Containing medicine; used in medicine; medicinal; as, the medical properties of a plant.
