Causation and melanoma classification.
In this article, I begin by giving a brief history of melanoma causation. I then discuss the current manner in which malignant melanoma is classified. In general, these systems of classification do not take account of the manner of tumour causation.

متن کاملAcute Pelvic Fractures: I. Causation and Classification.
Acute pelvic fractures are potentially lethal, even with modern techniques of poly-trauma care. The appropriate treatment of such fractures is dependent on a thorough understanding of the anatomic features of the pelvic region and the biomechanical basis of the various types of lesions. Although the anterior structures, the symphysis pubis and the pubic rami, contribute approximately 40% to the...

For it appears that all determination of movement is produced by the pushing of the thing being moved, by the manner in which it is pushed by that which moves it, or else by the qualification and figure of the surface of ...
متن کاملDetection of Melanoma Skin Cancer by Elastic Scattering Spectra: A Proposed Classification Method
Introduction: There is a strong need for developing clinical technologies and instruments for prompt tissue assessment in a variety of oncological applications as smart methods. Elastic scattering spectroscopy (ESS) is a real-time, noninvasive, point-measurement, optical diagnostic technique for malignancy detection through changes at cellular and subcellular levels, especially important in ear...
