digitation
Division into fingers
Digitation refers to a finger-like division or projection, particularly in anatomy and botany.
A leaf with digitation has lobes radiating from a central point like fingers from a palm.
In medicine, the term describes finger-shaped tissue projections or the process of examining by touch with the fingers.
