Definition of LUMEN. 1. 2. : the bore of a tube (as of a hollow needle or catheter). 3. : a unit of luminous flux equal to the light emitted in a unit solid angle by a uniform point source of one candle intensity.
Lumen: A luminous term referring to the channel within a tube such as a blood vessel or to the cavity within a hollow organ such as the intestine. Lumen is a luminous term because it is Latin for light, including the light that comes through a window. When a hollow organ is cut across, you can see light through the space that has been opened. So the word lumen came to mean this space.
