foveola

The tiny depression in the very center of the foveola, and corresponds to the foveal reflex.

The foveola is located within a region called the macula, a yellowish, cone photo receptor filled portion of the human retina.

Within the macula are the fovea and foveola which contain a high density of cones (photoreceptors with high acuity).

GROUP A: Small intraretinal tumors away from foveola and disc.

The specific epithet foveatus is derived from the Latin adjective foveola, referring to a surface with pits or depressions.

The center of the fovea is the foveola - about 0.2 mm in diameter - or central pit where only cone photoreceptors are present and there are virtually no rods.

A diagnosis of Menetrier disease should indicate massive overgrowth of mucous cells (foveola) in the gastric mucosa (foveolar hyperplasia) and minimal inflammation.

None Menetrier disease is a rare disorder characterized by massive overgrowth of mucous cells (foveola) in the mucous membrane lining the stomach, resulting in large gastric folds.

The foveola is approximately 0.35 mm in diameter and lies in the center of the fovea and contains only cone cells, and a cone-shaped zone of Müller cells.

The clinical factors that predicted visual acuity of 20/40 or better were a tumor margin at least 3 mm from the foveola and optic disc and an absence of subretinal fluid.

Gastric glands are simple or branched tubular glands that emerge on the deeper part of the gastric foveola, inside the gastric areas and outlined by the folds of the mucosa.

The funnel groove (depression on the bottom front part of the mantle where the funnel rests) is smooth and lacks foveola (pockets of skin found in ommastrephid squids of the subfamily Ommastrephinae).

Clivus is also used as an abbreviated term for the clivus ocularis which is the sloping inner wall of the retina as it dips into the foveola in the macula of the eye.

All tumors are 3 mm or smaller in greatest dimension, confined to the retina and All tumors are located further than 3 mm from the foveola and 1.5 mm from the optic disc.

He developed surgical treatments for mastoid disease and pyogenic cysts of the temporal bone and has identified an anatomical structure in this bone, the foveola suprameatica, which was named MacEwen's triangle in his honour.
