(b) The metastatic tumor cells detach from the primary site and penetrate the adjacent parenchyma to reach the blood vessels. On reaching the vessels, the cells invade and enter the circulation (intravasation) and then disseminate within the vascular system (left half of figure). These cells eventually adhere to secondary sites “soil” to then extravasate out of the blood vessels and for colonies of metastatic cells (right half of figure).
