(a.) Of or pertaining to a vortex or vortexes; resembling a vortex in form or motion; whirling; as, a vortical motion.
Example Sentences:

(5) Study of the prevortical veins showed, in addition, the presence of numerous fine anastomotic vessels which unite the veins which run to the vortical veins.
(6) This finding is consistent with the idea of a neural mechanism sensitive to the curl of velocity (i.e., vorticity).
(7) Based on the principle of ultrasonic Doppler flowmetry, a power ratio was derived from independent forward and reverse flow Doppler shift signals to measure a ratio of the volume of vortices to the total vessel volume in poststenotic separated flow.
(8) However, only large vortices are recorded, so that our turbulent shear stresses are lower than these reported in the literature.

(10) Therefore, solely hemodynamic criteria (detection of vortices) were used to diagnose ulceration.
(11) Simulations of velocities, vorticity, pressure and certain stress values were developed by a computer and displayed for man-machine interaction.
(12) Desquamating elements often accumulated in waves or vortices, as far as little cornified structures have been described.
(13) As regards the frequency of vortices, the differences are significant at the 1% level (in men they form 24.15% patterns, while in women 14.27%).
(14) A pair of vortices shed from both the SJM and CMI are clearly visible toward the end of the ventricular filling phase.
(15) Formation of vortices behind the leaflets during the LVAS ejection phase was observed in each of the housing designs.
(16) The present review outlines the characteristic details of microflow in secondary flow (short-lived vortices) such as they prevail in pulsatile flow in arterial segments with "non-cylindrical configuration".
(17) Results showed that sapecin has a vortical structure fixed by 3 disulfide bonds between cysteine residues 3 and 30, 16 and 36, and 20 and 38, respectively, and that these disulfide bonds are essential for its antibacterial activity.
(18) Newtonian fluids and blood both developed wavy vortical flow at a rotation rate moderately higher than Tc.
(19) The results of the computer simulation demonstrate the development, shift and disappearance of vortices in the excavation and give references to zones of stasis.
(20) A concentric ring appearance of the cecal mucosa on a barium enema is a distinctive but nonspecific radiographic finding that has been termed the vortical, whirlwind, or coiled-spring sign.
Vorticose
Definition:
(a.) Vortical; whirling; as, a vorticose motion.
Example Sentences:
(1) Injection of the radiopharmaceutical into the vorticose veins provides the most effective pharmacokinetics, vs. suprachoroidal and subconjunctival injections.
(2) The advantages of the technique suggested by the authors--fortification of the eyeball posterior pole with an auto-cartilage plate of the concha of the auricle 15 X 10 X 1 (1.5) mm in size--were revealed: both the immediate and late results of surgery were good, the surgery was low traumatic, no allergic reactions were recorded, the unpleasant sensations of the patients were the minimal; possible complications of scleroplasty, such as optic nerve and vorticose vein compression or perforation of thinned sclera, became less threatening.
(3) The syndrome seems to be secondary to a lesion of the vorticose system and to poor circulation conditions in the intrascleral part of this system.
(4) The method is simple, safe for the patients, since compression of vorticose veins and optic nerve is ruled out, easily tolerated, and yields a high stabilizing effect (97 percent) as evidenced by a follow-up of 1.5 do 3 years.
