  2. Parenchyma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parenchyma

    Lung parenchyma showing damage due to large subpleural bullae. Parenchyma (/ p ə ˈ r ɛ ŋ k ɪ m ə /) [1] [2] is the bulk of functional substance in an animal organ or structure such as a tumour. In zoology, it is the tissue that fills the interior of flatworms. In botany, it is some layers in the cross-section of the leaf. [3]

  3. Homogeneity and heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_and_heterogeneity

    Homogeneity and heterogeneity; only ' b ' is homogeneous Homogeneity and heterogeneity are concepts relating to the uniformity of a substance, process or image.A homogeneous feature is uniform in composition or character (i.e. color, shape, size, weight, height, distribution, texture, language, income, disease, temperature, radioactivity, architectural design, etc.); one that is heterogeneous ...

  4. Ultrasonography of liver tumors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonography_of_liver...

    In some cases this accumulation can mimic a liver tumor. Sometimes the opposite phenomenon can be seen, that is an "island" of normal parenchyma in a “shining” liver. In both cases ultrasound examination identifies a well defined, un-encapsulated area, with echostructure and vasculature similar to those of normal liver parenchyma.

  5. Tumour heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    The heterogeneous dynamic mechanochemical processes regulate interrelationships within the group of cellular surfaces through adhesion. [35] Tumour development and spreading is accompanied by change in heterogeneous chaotic dynamics of mechanochemical interaction process in the group cells, including cells within tumour, and is hierarchical for ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraparenchymal_hemorrhage

    Hemorrhagic neoplasms are more complex, heterogeneous bleeds often with associated edema. These hemorrhages are related to tumor necrosis, vascular invasion and neovascularity. Glioblastomas are the most common primary malignancies to hemorrhage while thyroid , renal cell carcinoma , melanoma , and lung cancer are the most common causes of ...

  7. Heterogeneity (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneity_(disambiguation)

    Heterogeneous conditions in medicine are those conditions which have several causes/etiologies; A heterogeneous taxon, a taxon that contains a great variety of individuals or sub-taxa; usually this implies that the taxon is an artificial grouping; Genetic heterogeneity, multiple origins causing the same disorder in different individuals.

  8. Hepatocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepatocyte

    A hepatocyte is a cell of the main parenchymal tissue of the liver. Hepatocytes make up 80% of the liver's mass. These cells are involved in: Protein synthesis; Protein storage; Transformation of carbohydrates; Synthesis of cholesterol, bile salts and phospholipids; Detoxification, modification, and excretion of exogenous and endogenous substances

  9. Callus (cell biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callus_(cell_biology)

    Plant callus (plural calluses or calli) is a growing mass of unorganized plant parenchyma cells. In living plants, callus cells are those cells that cover a plant wound. In biological research and biotechnology callus formation is induced from plant tissue samples (explants) after surface sterilization and plating onto tissue culture medium in vitro (in a closed culture vessel such as a Petri ...
