There are multiple definitions:
Prony's method(English)
- a powerful mathematical technique used to fit a sum of damped complex exponentials to uniformly sampled data. Developed by Gaspard de Prony in 1795, it goes beyond traditional Fourier analysis (e.g., DFT) by directly extracting the exact frequency, damping factor, phase, and amplitude of signal components

posteromedial [corner](English)
- corner release can be performed with the knee in both the figure-of-four position and conventional position. In the figure-of-four position, more extensive and complete surgical release can be easily achieved, resulting in a good immediate balance gap and quite stable knee joint without a bad influence on the longevity of the implant

pneumomediastinum(English)
- defined as the presence of free air in the mediastinal cavity. Two categories: 1) with an instigating event, and referred to as secondary PM. 2) when free air is discovered in the mediastinal cavity without a clear etiology, referred to as spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM). Often misdiagnosed due to the vague nature of presenting symptoms, SPM must be part of the differential diagnosis of a chest pain patient to expedite discovery and if necessary, management
