In Interstitial defect, atom occupies the interstitial space of the lattice structure of solid crystal. In Substitutional defect, the foreign atom occupies only the lattice site of a crystalline solid. Interstitial defect may occur by the atoms of either same solid (called self-interstitial) or foreign material. Substitutional defect is always caused by foreign atoms.
see nephritis. interstitial fluid pressure. pressure exerted by the free interstitial fluid; if the pressure is negative this tends to suck fluid out of the vascular system and into the tissue space; if the pressure is greater than the intravascular pressure fluid tends to move out of the tissue space.interstitial pneumonia. see pneumonia.interstitial space. tissue space. interstitial tissue. connective tissue between the cellular elements of a structure.ressure exerted by the free interstitial fluid; if the pressure is negative this tends to suck fluid out of the vascular system and into the tissue space; if the pressure is greater than the intravascular pressure fluid tends to move out of the tissue space.
