EXAMPLE SENTENCES

The medical scan clearly displayed an abnormality near the patient optic chiasm today. Anatomists study how nerve fibers cross paths at the central optic chiasm structure. In literature a chiasm presents ideas in a reversed parallel structure for dramatic effect. A subtle chiasm in the text arranged key phrases in an inverted symmetrical pattern.
