archaeological items are said to be "in situ " when they are found in the location where they were last deposited.
literally, "in position." In archaeological terminology, it refers to an artifact, architectural feature or other find that has been excavated or exposed in its original, ancient context.
This term is used to indicate an early stage of cancer in which a tumor is confined to the immediate area where it began. Specifically in breast cancer, in situ means that the cancer remains confined to ducts or lobules, and it has neither invaded surrounding fatty tissues in the breast nor spread to other organs in the body.
hybridization: Technique in which a single-stranded RNA or DNA probe is used to locate a gene or an mRNA molecule in a cell or tissue. (See also hybridization.)
In it's original position or place.
Cancer in an early, superficial stage of development when the cancer cells are still confined to the site where they began.

In place; an undisturbed artifact is in situ.
Describes work on site; in the original place. For example, in situ concrete would differentiate cast in place concrete from precast concrete.

This is an archaeological term, which means literally "at the site." It is used to designate the precise position of an artifact as it was first discovered by the archaeologist.
hybridization A technique for mapping cloned DNA sequences by hybridization directly to metaphase chromosomes and analysis by microscopy (see Chapter 10). See In situ Hybridization in the MGI Glossary.
Cancer that is still in the place it began and has not spread to nearby tissue.
In the site of. In regard to cancer, in situ refers to tumors that haven't grown beyond their site of origin and invaded neighboring tissue.

Present at the site, in place. Treatment of hazardous wastes on site, without removing them to another location.
Refers to cultural material that is discovered as being undisturbed and considered to be in its original context. That is, material which, when identified is considered to be in the same location when the site was abandoned.
natural undisturbed position of an object or material
hybridization (ISH): A technique in which a DNA, RNA or oligonucleotide probe is used to detect and locate viral DNA, human DNA, or an RNA transcript (messenger RNA). In situ hybridization, or ISH, stains can be used to assist in the diagnosis of infectious diseases or genetic mutations that are usually associated with the presence of cancer.
Latin words to describe changed cells that have not yet spread beyond their place of origin (ie. gland/lobe or duct)
A very early stage of cancer in which the tumor is localized to one area.

In the original location.
Latin for "in place". Guidebooks always recommend that you back up a piece of in situ protection (such as a piton or sling) with separate protection of your own. This is usually also impossible, as the reason the in situ gear was put there was because there the first ascensionist had no other option.
conservation: Literally "on-site" conservation. The conservation of plants or animals in areas where they developed their distinctive properties: in the wild or in farmers' fields. Compare to ex situ conservation.
