Another index of toxicity is the individual internal organ weight in relation to whole animal body weight, which we assessed through the coefficient of the liver, kidneys, brain and spleen in this study.
In turn a further margin is required to account for technique-dependent variations such as positional inaccuracy for the individual, internal organ movement (e.g. breathing), and parameters of the treatment machine that may result in inadequate dose coverage of the CTV.
Moreover, our data suggest that peripheral tissues may to some extent be used to assess inter-individual differences in DNA methylation in internal organs that frequently remain inaccessible in epidemiological studies.
A novel transparent stock of medaka (Oryzias latipes; STII), homozygous recessive for all four pigments (iridophores, xanthophores, leucophores, melanophores), permits transcutaneous, high resolution (<1 microm) imaging of internal organs and tissues in living individuals.
Dr Koni Grob, of the Food Safety Laboratory in Zurich, said toxicologists had linked the oils to inflammation of internal organs and even cancer, though he stressed that individual meals would contain only a tiny dose of the chemicals.
9 With aging individuals, shifts in thoughts, feelings, and behavior triggered by activity within the musculoskeletal system and internal organs are more often the rule than an exception.
The amplitudes and directions of surface movements depend on the individual subject, the location of the target, and any non-linear deformation of the abdominal surface and internal organs.
