The proposed method is based on a pattern growth algorithm that can effectively narrow down the search by finding chains of common k-mers.
According to its anatomic origin cholangiocarcinoma is usually classified as intrahepatic, perihilar, or extrahepatic distal or based on growth pattern as mass forming, infiltrating or polypoidal.
As in other areas of pathology, a three-tier system is most often used, based on growth pattern and cytonuclear criteria, and dividing DCIS into well-, intermediandly, and poorly differentiated subtypes (Holland et al, 1994).
Looking to the decade ahead, this analysis suggests that one can predict the rich countries' relative growth rates based on the growth pattern of their working-age populations, which one already knows today, given that anybody starting to work over the next two decades has already been born.
The growth pattern of the tumours was classified (by two pathologists) as either expansive or infiltrative pattern, based on their patterns of growth and invasiveness.
The growth pattern can be used as a surrogate marker of angiogenesis, and pretreatment patient selection based on the growth pattern could enlarge the fraction of patients responding to angiogenesis inhibitors.
Based on their growth pattern, hemivertebrae can be classified into the fully segmented (nonincarcerated and incarcerated variants) (Fig. 8a-b), semisegmented (Fig. 8c-e) and nonsegmented.
They can be divided into a tubular, papillary, and tubulopapillary type based on their growth pattern, and cytologically into a pyloric-gland, intestinal, foveolar, and biliary type [ 1].
Unicystic ameloblastoma has been categorized into the luminal, intraluminal, and mural subtypes [ 3, 7] based on the growth pattern of the ameloblastomatous epithelium.
