Actinic keratoses that develop on the lips are referred to as actinic cheilitis. The clinical appearance of an actinic keratosis is that of a small (several millimeters), red scaly papule or plaque, with induration and thickening of the epidermis.
1 Location: Ideally, the probe should be in close proximity to the forward or reverse primer, but should not overlap with a primer-binding site on the same strand. 2  Probes can be designed to bind to either strand of the target. 3  Melting temperature (Tm): Preferably, probes should have a Tm 6â8Â°C higher than the primers.
The internal jugular vein should be imaged and placed in the center of the ultrasound field. The needle should be angled at 40 to 60 degrees from the plane of the neck and 1 cm back from the middle of the ultrasound probe (Image 5).
