Definition of albellus

(LeRoy Fothergill, "Biological Warfare", in Peter...)

The entrance and retention of infectious particles in the alveoli amounts almost to an intra tissue inoculation .

(Richard F. McLaughlin, et al., "A study of the...)

The pulmonary_artery , in_addition to supplying the distal portion of the respiratory bronchiole , the alveolar duct , and the alveoli , continues on and directly supplies the thin pleura ( fig. 8 ) .

The alveoli and respiratory bronchioles are primarily diffusing tissues .

Therefore , an explanation of this alveolar bronchial_artery supply might be the nutritive requirement of an increased amount of supportive tissue , not primarily diffusing in nature , in the region of the alveolus .

(J. W. C. Hagstrom et al., "Debilitating muscular...)

Macrophages laden with brown pigment were seen in some of the alveoli , and the intima of some of the small arteries was thickened by fibrous_tissue .
