intracavitary
Within body space
Intracavitary means within a body cavity.
The term appears in medical contexts describing procedures, devices, or treatments placed inside hollow spaces such as the uterus, bladder, or chest cavity: intracavitary radiation therapy, intracavitary pressure monitoring.
The prefix intra- (within) combines with cavity to specify location rather than surface or external application.
