protrusibility
Protrusibility is a property describing the capacity of a body, organ, structure, or feature to extend beyond its base plane, boundary, or typical position, resulting in a projection outward. The concept is used across disciplines to describe both static geometry and dynamic movement.
In anatomy and physiology, protrusibility refers to the ability of tissues or muscles to extend or protrude.
In materials science and biomechanics, protrusibility can describe the formation or growth of surface protrusions under
Assessment methods commonly involve imaging techniques such as MRI or CT scanning, three-dimensional surface scanning, and
Applications of the concept span medical diagnosis and rehabilitation, comparative anatomy, plant science, robotics, and biomimetics.
