Computed tomography (CT) provides more accurate details regarding MM extension, in particular at the level of the chest wall, diaphragm and pericardium, and allows a good evaluation of extra-pleural fat planes, invasion of intercostal muscles and bone erosions (Fig. 2).
Once attached to an erythrocyte, the merozoite reorientates its apical end to the erythrocyte surface and an interface forms between the two cells; a tight junction composed of parasite proteins around the periphery of the merozoite apex on the cross-sectional plane of invasion.
It is certain that there was no violence against the Europeans or Jews, even during the bombings by Anglo-French planes and the invasion by Israeli troops.
Tumour spread to adjacent organs is suggested by loss of the fat planes and direct invasion (see Table 3).
HTS remains confined within the site of the original wound, increasing in size primarily through growth in the perpendicular plane rather than lateral invasion.
All three studies found that when the tumor is not contiguous with the vessel (i.e. when an intervening fat plane is present), vascular invasion is almost never present.
It was also close enough to North Africa to be within striking distance of Allied short-range fighter planes, and a successful invasion of Sicily had the potential to knock the Italians out of the war.
Together with precision attacks from carrier-based planes, the pre-invasion bombardment would pour fire day after day onto the beaches with such intensity — he paused, weighing the phrase, then said, "with such stupendous intensity" — that the very ground upon which the Japanese defenses stood would be obliterated.
Surgical specimens were sectioned along the longitudinal plane of the uterus, and myometrial invasion and cervical stromal invasion were estimated grossly and confirmed microscopically according to standard procedures (Silverberg et al, 2003).
However, the converse is not necessarily true: lack of a fat plane is not diagnostic for invasion (T4 disease), in either cachectic patients or in those with normal body weight.
