The radiology resident also measured the axial diameter of the breast
glandular tissue at the level of nipple.
But the shape of visual patches which contain
glandular tissue is always a long strip as shown in Figure 6.
Although in the present study no neoplastic changes could be observed, the infiltration of the serosal and muscular layer by the
glandular tissue and fibrosis was observed.
An ultrasound examination was performed to evaluate the existence of
glandular tissue and to exclude any pathologic mass in all cases.
Pathological changes in the
glandular tissue were investigated under light microscopy (Carl Zeiss Axio Scope A1, Gottingen, Germany).
Dr Rezai elaborates: "Breasts are made up of fatty tissue, fibrous tissue, and
glandular tissue. Someone is said to have dense breasts [on a mammogram] when they have more glandular and fibrous tissue and less fatty tissue.
However, when the intermammary tissue consists of fibrous septa and
glandular tissue rather than fat, excision of the tissue and subdermal suturing through small inframammary incision should be performed to avoid unsightly scars.[sup][2],[3] Midline vertical skin incisions over the sternum with lateral extension into the inframammary folds and various local flaps for repair should be avoided.
2(a)--of
glandular tissue near the nipple is not resolved, but that the permittivity (absolute) values are significantly higher around the nipple.
First, the glands tend to be made up of relatively actively dividing cells that can mutate and become cancerous (the more
glandular tissue present, the greater the risk).
An increase in MMP-2 in
glandular tissue may lead to hydrolysis of tissue matrix components.
The researchers determined the proportion of dense
glandular tissue of the overall breast area.
4) and the ones seen by Meyrick & Reid (1970) in human bronchial
glandular tissue, which may account for the scarcity of these glands in the rat, similar granules being discharged from surface cells.
