Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): Jonathan MacKerron

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Dignität (Medizin)
aus Wikipedia, der freien Enzyklopädie

"Die Dignität (von lateinisch dignitas Würde, hier im Sinn von Wertigkeit) bezeichnet in der Medizin eine Eigenschaft von Tumoren. Benigne (gutartige) Tumoren wachsen lokal begrenzt und dringen nicht in benachbarte Strukturen ein, können jedoch allein durch ihr Volumen schon schwere Probleme verursachen (beispielsweise bei Hirntumoren); maligne (bösartige) Tumoren (umgangssprachlich: Krebs) können den Organismus massiv schädigen.Die Kriterien für die Einordnung sind nicht überall eindeutig, entscheidend für die Einordnung als maligne ist die Möglichkeit der Metastasierung und des invasiven (eindringenden) Wachstums. Es gibt jedoch auch Tumoren wie das Basaliom, die nicht metastasieren, aber lokal stark zerstörend (destruierend) wachsen, sodass sie erheblichen Schaden verursachen. Eine Zwischenkategorie bildet der Begriff semimaligne."
