What are the types of dense connective tissues?
a. loose connective tissue 1. aerolalar connective tissue 2.adipose tissue 3.retigular connective tissue b. Dense connective tissue 1.dense irregular connective tissue 2.dense regular connective tissue 3.elastic connective tissue
What are the 3 major groups of connective tissue?
Epithelial, muscle, and nervous. Disagree- the 3 subgroups are: loose, dense, and connective tissue with special properties. Subgroups within dense are: dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are interwoven in disordered fashion, and dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are in parallel bundles. Subgroups in the special properties connective tissue are named to indicate the identifying feature, such as mucous connective tissue, elastic connective tissue or reticular connective tissue.
What tissue is most dense?
Bone
Are tendons made up of dense irregular connective tissue?
Yes. An example is in the dermis, which is very vascular. Dense regular connective tissue is not, however (consists of tendons and ligaments). The other kind of CT that is not vascular is cartilage. Source: medical school lectures
What is the most dense tissue in the human body?
The most dense tissue in the human body is bone tissue. It is composed of mineralized collagen fibers that give it its strength and hardness, making it the densest tissue in the body.
Could heterogeneously dense fibroglandular mean you have cancer already?
Having heterogeneously dense fibroandular tissue is a cancer cell does that mean i have breast cancer already?
Are there any symptoms with heterogeneously dense breast?
Why is breast density significant?Dense breasts contain more glandular and connective tissue. Less dense breasts are mainly made up of fat tissue. Every woman has different amounts of the different types of tissue in her breasts. Breast cancer itself is made up of dense tissue. This means that on a mammogram, a tumor is harder to spot in dense tissue than in fatty tissue, because the tumor looks a lot like the tissue around it. An analogy is often used to describe the way dense tissue looks on film, "It's like looking for a polar bear in a snow storm." Breast cancers are readily seen in fatty tissue with up to 98% sensitivity in film mammography.Dense breast tissue itself is a risk factor for breast cancer, with the risk 4-6 fold higher in women with extremely dense breasts compared to fatty breasts, and breast cancer is more likely to develop in denser areas of the breast. Extremely dense (>75% dense) or heterogeneously dense (51-75% dense) is present in over half of women younger than age 50 years and one-third of women age 50 years and older.
Dense parenchyma centrally in breasts?
what is heterogeneously dense breast parenchyma?
What is fibro glandular parenchyma?
Fibroglandular parenchyma is the combination of fibrous and glandular tissue found in the breast. This tissue is responsible for producing and transporting milk in breastfeeding women. Changes in fibroglandular tissue density can affect mammography results and breast cancer risk assessment.
Does fibroglandular parenchyma become cancer?
"Parenchyma" means the bulk of an organ. You don't mention the body part you're worried about, but in a breast, fibroglandular parencyma is the normal breast tissue, not a sign of a precancerous condition.
What is the main tissue in dermis?
dense connective tissue
What are the types of dense connective tissues?
a. loose connective tissue 1. aerolalar connective tissue 2.adipose tissue 3.retigular connective tissue b. Dense connective tissue 1.dense irregular connective tissue 2.dense regular connective tissue 3.elastic connective tissue
What does homogeneous parenchyma in the breast mean?
Homogeneous parenchyma in the breast refers to the tissue having a uniform density and appearance on imaging, typically indicating a consistent distribution of fibroglandular tissue. This is often considered a normal finding and indicates no significant abnormalities or masses within the breast tissue.
