What's the difference between tangential and tangentially?

Tangential


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to a tangent; in the direction of a tangent.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) On the tangential views the inclinations of the future implants were estimated and the part of the alveolar ridge having a width less than 5 mm, which is the minimum width for housing an implant, was compiled.
  • (2) These tangential fibers are in part the preterminal arborizations of geniculocortical axons, since some of them have been shown to degenerate after geniculate lesions.
  • (3) These were not observed in area 5, although here the distribution of callosal neurons waxed and waned in the tangential cortical plane.
  • (4) In 2 patients the frontally recorded SEP component P20 was lost; in one of them the activity of mainly the tangential dipole was reduced.
  • (5) The derivatives of these cells spread out tangentially over the entire fundus of the eye in a concentric manner.
  • (6) The soft, dull, malacic appearance of the center results from lack of a true surface layer of tangential collagen fibers.
  • (7) Detection of the cysts was only possible after myelographic screening of all cases of tangential trauma.
  • (8) Tangential semithin sections of demineralized tooth germ were serially cut from the enamel surface to the enamel-dentin junction.
  • (9) The distances between the test points are reduced in tangential direction, compared to the chart.
  • (10) Parameters measured from simulator films included: (a) the perpendicular distance from the posterior tangential field edge to the posterior part of the anterior chest wall at the center of the field (CLD); (b) the maximum perpendicular distance from the posterior tangential field edge to the posterior part of the anterior chest wall (MLD); and (c) the length of lung (L) as measured at the posterior tangential field edge on the simulator film.
  • (11) One-hundred patients with anterior foot pain were examined by tangential sesamoid x-rays and some by bone scan.
  • (12) The tangential force caused massive swelling and one week later bowing of the forearm was noticed.
  • (13) The ferret callosal cell distribution has a greater tangential extent in area 18 than in area 17.
  • (14) These results suggested that AcMNPV-induced depolymerization of microtubules may be a necessary event in, rather than a tangential effect of, virus replication.
  • (15) The three-field breast set-up, in which tangential oblique opposed fields are joined to an anterior supraclavicular field, has been the method of choice for treatment of breast cancer for many years.
  • (16) This report quantifies the increase of burn survival, which we believe is associated with the use of early tangential excision and grafting as opposed to conventional therapy in adult patients with burns.
  • (17) Migration and early differentiation of neurons of the tangential vestibular nucleus of the chick take place between embryonic days 5 and 8.
  • (18) Data are acquired in the stationary mode only (no wobble motion), resulting in a transaxial spatial resolution of better than 6 mm full width at half-maximum (FWHM) at the center, which degrades to 7.5 mm tangentially and 9.6 mm radially at a radius of 20 cm.
  • (19) If the tangential velocity of the spot is constant, very large and subject-specific biases emerge in the perception of the aspect ratio.
  • (20) For the latter problem, the most employed solutions are: the inclusion of IMC in the tangential fields, the use of the direct or oblique electron beam for IMC alone.
