	Superficial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Superficial is a general term meaning "regarding the surface", often metaphorically.
		A superficial, or alternatively, an "over-simplified" argument is prone to many logical fallacies: including hasty generalization, division, composition and many others.
		A person who exhibits a "superficial" comprehension of some or many subjects may be negatively attributed as being shallow or even Pseudointellectual.

	Superficial anatomy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Superficial anatomy is a descriptive science dealing with anatomical features that can be studied by sight, without dissecting an organism.
		In particular, in the case of human anatomy, these are the form and proportions of the human body and the surface landmarks which correspond to deeper structures hidden from view, both in static pose and in motion.
		Studying of superficial anatomy is the basis for depiction of human body in classic art.

	SUPERFICIAL LIPOSUCTION
		The high-up (superficial) liposuction was heavily marketed, as opposed to liposuction that involved removal of fat from the traditional location, which is in the lower to mid-fatty layers.
		Superficial liposuction near the surface of the skin may damage small blood vessels and nerves leading to the dermis (leather layer adjacent to the surface epidermis of the skin).
		The author feels that the current practice of superficial liposuction may be undesirable for use in most areas of the body, with the exception of the face and neck.

	eMedicine - Thrombophlebitis, Superficial : Article by Craig Feied, MD, FACEP, FAAEM, FACPh (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Every effort should be made to prevent superficial phlebitis from progressing to involve the deep veins, because damage to deep vein valves leads to chronic deep venous insufficiency (often referred to as postphlebitic syndrome) as well as to recurrent PE and a risk of death.
		The principal indication for fibrinolysis in superficial phlebitis is greater saphenous phlebitis approaching the saphenofemoral junction at the groin.
		Superficial varicosities and superficial phlebitis are common during pregnancy, and associated DVT is also common because of a pregnancy-related reduction in intrinsic plasminogen activator activity.

		Superficial thrombophlebitis is an inflammatory reaction with thrombus of a vein under the skin.
		Superficial thrombophlebitis usually is associated with an inflammatory reaction involving the vein.
		Superficial thrombophlebitis spontaneously develops in superficial veins, especially in the lower extremities in the greater saphenous vein; this is common in patients with varicose veins.

	MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Superficial thrombophlebitis
		Superficial thrombophlebitis may occur after the recent use of an intravenous (IV) line, after trauma to the vein, or for no apparent reason in persons at risk for thrombophlebitis.
		Superficial thrombophlebitis may occasionally be associated with abdominal cancers (such as carcinoma of the pancreas), deep vein thrombosis, and thromboangiitis obliterans.
		Superficial thrombophlebitis is usually a benign and short-term condition.

		Superficial thrombophlebitis is thrombosis of superficial veins associated with vein wall inflammatory changes.
		In such case and in cases where pulmonary embolisation has occurred only the junction between the superficial and deep venous systems should be surgically disconnected and the rest of the superficial vein not subjected to stripping or avulsions in the acute phase.
		In case where the superficial thrombophlebitis is not as aggressive the varicose veins should be treated once the superficial thrombophlebitis has settled, so as to prevent further episodes.

	Superficial Angiomyxoma
		Superficial angiomyxoma (cutaneous myxoma): a clinicopathologic study of 17 cases arising in the genital region.
		We support the concept of superficial angiomyxoma as a distinctive clinicopathologic entity that should be included in the differential diagnosis of other myxoid cutaneous tumors, including dermal nerve sheath myxoma, trichodiscoma and trichofolliculoma, and low-grade myxofibrosarcoma.
		We suspect that superficial angiomyxoma, cutaneous focal mucinosis, trichogenic myxoma, trichogenic adnexal tumors, trichodiscoma, myxoid perifollicular fibromas, trichofolliculomas and fibrofolliculomas, the Carney complex, NAME and LAMB syndromes are all closely related.

	Lab Manual - Superficial Back
		Describe the general structural plan of the body and the relationships of the layers, partitions and compartments one encounters when dissecting from superficial to deep in any particular region.
		In those areas where the subcutaneous tissue was preserved, nerves may be located by incising through the superficial fascia in the mid-line and elevating and separating this layer from the deep fascia.
		The superficial muscles of the entire body are covered with an investing fascia that is relatively opaque and firmly adherent to the muscle.

	Superficial Thrombophlebitis: Venous Disorders: Merck Manual Home Edition
		Superficial thrombophlebitis (superficial phlebitis) is inflammation and clotting in a superficial vein.
		Superficial thrombophlebitis most often affects the superficial veins in the legs but may also affect superficial veins in the groin.
		When superficial thrombophlebitis occurs in the groin, where the main superficial vein joins the main deep vein, a thrombus may extend into the deep vein.

		Superficial Liposuction is a safe, minimally invasive procedure for the treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis and bromhidrosis, and it has a very high success rate.
		The difference is that with Superficial Liposuction, the cannula opening is directed toward the surface of the skin where the apocrine and eccrine glands are located.
		This procedure generally results in a permanent 80% to 100% reduction in the amount of sweating under the arms with temporary numbness being the most common side effect.

	Superficial Bladder Cancer
		For recurrent, superficial high grade tumors, or as a preventative measure in high-risk patients after TUR, various chemotherapeutic agents may be instilled in the bladder, and use of such agents has been shown to increase disease free intervals.
		Whereas superficial bladder cancer has the appearance of a solid or papillary tumor, in carcinoma in situ, the involved mucosa is reddish and velvety to granular.
		Photodynamic therapy and hyperthermia combined with chemoradiotherapy are being investigated for use in superficial bladder cancer.

	Home - Superficial
		This page introduces the key concepts of the Superficial approach, which are demonstrated by means of a spike application (450KB applet requiring Java plug-in and best opened in a separate tab or window).
		In a Superficial application you don't have to code this for individual cases, just as you don't code the surface in terms of individual widgets, or more facet targets than are logically necessary.
		The power of Superficial's retargeting architecture to simplify issues such as event listening and data binding is a consequence of the most fundamental feature of Superficial - its extremely clear separation of concerns.
