Having a network-like or mesh-like pattern of fibrous tissue.
From fibro- + reticulate (Latin reticulum, small net + -ate, having). This anatomical term describes tissue structures with a net-like appearance.
Your skin and deeper tissues are full of these intricate fibrous networks—they work like nature's scaffolding, giving your body structure while still letting blood vessels and nerves slip through the mesh like tiny highways.
