Accelerated
Critical Neural Pathway Formation |
Medical
procedure that uses genetic recoding to alter the brain
of a humanoid patient.
This procedure is banned in the Federation and has been
illegal under laws dating back to the end of the Eugenics
Wars. |
Amniotic
Scan |
Sensor
readings of the fluid contained within the amniotic sac
of a mammalian pregnancy. Such a scan can provide a wealth
of information about the fetus, including its sex. |
ARA
Scan (Autonomic Response Analysis) |
medical
scan that can be used to determine the truthfulness of a
humanoid subject. |
Basilar
Arterial Scan |
medical
diagnostic test that evaluates the arteries in the brainstern. |
Berylite
scan |
medical
procedure used aboard Federation starships |
Bicaridine treatment |
Regenerative
therapy for fracture patients. It is used as a substitute
in patients that are allergic to metorapan |
Biomimetic
Fluctuation |
medical
reading in Founders that are indicative of dangerous instability
of the morphogenic matrix. |
Blood
Screening |
medical
test used by Federation personnel to identify shape-shifters.
This was considered necessary because of the possibility
that shape-shifting Founders had taken humanoid form and
infiltrated the Federation and other Alpha Quadrant powers.
The test involves removing a small sample of blood from
an individual's body. If the individual is a changeling,
the blood would revert to a gelatinous orange fluid. |
Brain
circuitry pattern |
medical
diagnostic image mapping neural activity in a humanoid brain.
The BCP of each individual is unique, and this serves as
a postive means of identification. |
Cardiac
replacement |
Surgical
procedure in which a patient's diseased or injured heart
is replaced by an artificial device. The technique was developed
by Dr. Van Doren |
Cardiac
Induction |
Emergency
medical resuscitative measure. |
CPK
levels |
A
medical test performed on board Federation starships. CPK,
or creatinine phosphokinase, is a marker of muscular damage.
It is mostly used to diagnose cardiac damage. |
Cryogenic
Open Heart Procedure |
Surgical
procedure |
Cryonics |
Old
practice of cryogenically freezing a human just after death
in the hopes that future medical advances would render their
sickness curable. |
Cryostasis |
medical
procedure used to slow down biological functions in a critically
injured patient, allowing the physician more time to correct
the malady.
medical test to confirm an individual's identity by matching
DNA patterns. |
Direct
reticular stimulation |
medical
procedure in which electrical energy is applied directly
to the nervous system of a humanoid patient in an attempt
to revive neural activity. A device called a neural stimulator
is used in this procedure |
DNA
reference scan |
medical
test to confirm an individual's identity by matching DNA
patterns. |
Dolbargy
Sleeping Trance |
Voluntarily
induced deep coma. |
Electrophoretic Energy Analysis |
Electrophoresis
is a process by which proteins are identified by putting
them on a gel and running an electric current through the
gel, then staining the gel and measuring how far the proteins
moved in comparison to a group of standard proteins that
were also put on the gel (bigger proteins move slower, in
general.) |
Encephalographic
polygraph scan |
A
brainwave scan used to determine truthfulness during questioning |
Hyperencephalogram |
medical
test that records and measures brain wave activity. |
Inner
Nuncial Series |
A
battery of neurological tests. |
Metorapan
treatments |
Regenerative
treatment for fracture patients. |
Myocardial
Enzyme Balance |
>medical
test used in surgical, particularly cardiac procedures. |
Neural
Imaging Scan |
medical
diagnostic scan used to test the acuity of the patient's
visual cortex. |
Neurolink |
Emergency
medical technique used for the stabilization of patients
with brainstem injuries. Matching neural pads were used.
One would be placed on a healthy individual and a matching
unit on the patient. These devices enabled a link to be
established from the healthy person`s autonomic nervous
system to that of the injured patient. |
Neurosomatic
Technique |
Procedure
used on the planet Tilonus IV in an attempt to extract strategic
information. |
Reflection
Therapy |
Psychiatric
technique used on the planet Tilonus IV in which the patient's
brain is scanned and images from brain areas that control
emotions and memory are projected holographically. The patient
then interacts with holographic images which represent various
facets of his personality. |
Resonance
Tissue Scan |
medical
diagnostic test used by Starfleet physicians to screen for
infection. |
Retinal
Imaging Scan |
medical
test used to verify the presence or absence of activity
in the visual cortex. |
Ribosome
Infusion |
medical
procedure to help the exposure of certain radiation. |
Robbiani
Dermal Optic Test |
medical
diagnostic test that registers a subject's emotional structure
through skin and pupil response to visual stimulation at
specific color wavelengths. |
Steinman
Analysis |
medical
test noting individual specific data such as voice analysis
and brain patterns. |
Synaptic
Induction |
Technique
in neurotheraphy used for patients suffering from traumatic
memory loss. |
Synaptic
Reconstruction |
Surgery
which neutralizes the synaptic pathways responsible for
deviant behavior |
