MSH: The scroll-like bony plates with curved margins on the lateral wall of the NASAL CAVITY. Turbinates, also called nasal concha, increase the surface area of nasal cavity thus providing a mechanism for rapid warming and humidification of air as it passes to the lung.,NCI: One of three (Inferior, Middle, Superior) paired bony shelves located within the nasal cavity through which inhaled air is taken into the nasopharynx. It is lined with ciliated, pseudostratified columnar epithelium and functions to humidify, heat, and filter incoming air, as well as protecting the olfactory bulb and sinuses from incorrectly pressurized incoming air.,NCI: One of three (Inferior, Middle, Superior) paired bony shelves located within the nasal cavity through which inhaled air is taken into the nasopharynx.
