Vascular structure of experimental tumours. Appearances in scanning electron microscope.
The vascular structure of experimental tumours was investigated by a resin cast technique. Six characteristic types of capillaries were found: club-like, wave-like, tortuous,sinusoid-like, disorderly running and tapering. The vascular structure was correlated to the tumour growth.
