How can you use “micrometastases” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Thus, MART-1 and Melan-A individually could not detect micrometastases in 16% (4/25) of the slices.

  • Capsular melanocytic nevi appear to be the most significant benign lesion that could pose a diagnostic challenge in the interpretation of melanoma micrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes.

  • All axillary lymph nodes were paraffin embedded, sliced into 4 μm slides and assessed for the presence of micrometastases.
