Figure 2. Geometry of squamous epithelium.

Figure 2

A Basal layer (vertical perspective) before initiation with local field (left), and after initiation where the tumor is growing within the local field (right). B Sideways view of the fields before and after initiation, along the dashed lines in panel A. The proliferative cells inhabiting the two-dimensional lattice in the model reside in the basal layer of the epithelium.
