Sentence examples for more superficial tissues from inspiring English sources

Muscle tissue shows the lowest tolerance to pressure injuries, compared with more superficial tissues.

Pressure-related deep tissue injury (DTI) represents a severe pressure ulcer, which initiates in compressed muscle tissue overlying a bony prominence and progresses to more superficial tissues until penetrating the skin.

This may be explained by the fact that urate deposition also occurs in other places besides tendons such as in the articular cartilage, subchondral bone, synovial membrane, capsular and periarticular tissues, and in areas of decreased temperatures such as in more superficial tissues of the extremities.

In particular, in the case of brain imaging, addressed to detection of hemoglobin content and oxygenation, time-domain measurements have been proposed as a means to reach deeper structures (brain cortex) uncoupling for the masking effects caused by more superficial tissues [ 2– 7].

It is still debated to what extent the more superficial tissues influence the measurement, e.g. Germon et al found a significant effect of varying the extra cranial perfusion [ 26] while others report negligible contributions from the extra cranial tissues [ 27, 28].

Heat transfer from the skin surface into deeper tissues is inhibited by the subcutaneous fat, which acts as a thermal insulator, and by the increased blood flow in more superficial tissues which cools the tissues by transporting away the heat [ 17].
