Spongiose
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Spongious
Example Sentences:

(19) The study of synchroneous animals demonstrated a less expressed spongiose of metaphyses found only in one third of the rats which was not usually combined with a reduced area of the primary spongiose near the cartilaginous growth plate.
(20) Spongiosal pressure is maintained primarily by a high flow state through the glans penis while cavernosal pressure depends on a veno-occlusive mechanism.
Spongy
Definition:
(a.) Soft, and full of cavities; of an open, loose, pliable texture; as, a spongy excrescence; spongy earth; spongy cake; spongy bones.
(a.) Wet; drenched; soaked and soft, like sponge; rainy.
(a.) Having the quality of imbibing fluids, like a sponge.
Example Sentences:
(1) It is concluded that during exposure to simulated microgravity early signs of osteoporosis occur in the tibial spongiosa and that changes in the spongy matter of tubular bones and vertebrae are similar and systemic.
(2) No AbMV DNA was found in cells from palisade and spongy parenchyma, the tissues which show the predominant cytopathological effects.
(3) The anterior superior iliac crest, the usual donor site for cortico-spongy bone grafts is unsuitable for the removal of large quantities of spongy bone.

(7) Tissues in which concentrations were measured included cortical bone, spongy bone, muscle, fascia, cutis and subcutis.
(8) The specimens included the surrounding cortical bone and its internal spongy substance.
(9) The experimental findings can be satisfactorily treated in a quantitative way with the help of a model which contains the three components of spongy bone (mineral, fat and fat-free connective tissue.
(10) In both mutant types, the presence of many vacuoles gives the central nervous system a spongy appearance.
(11) An astrocytic hypertrophy was usually associated with the spongy change.
(12) The low density was due to a microcystic structure, which caused a spongy appearance and consistency.

(14) The MA were restricted to spongy areas in Canavan's disease and Alpers' syndrome, whereas they were distributed throughout the brain in Leigh's disease.
(15) There was severe cerebral involvement with multifocal cystic necrosis, dystrophic calcification, spongy change, and vacuolization that had produced profound neurologic deficits.
(16) A certain regularity between enlargement of the teeth size, increasing angle of the lower jaw and decreasing size of the longitudinal and expressive dimensions of the jaws (in accordance with decreasing size of the spongy substance and its cells) has been revealed.
