In this paper we examine a new distance-based method for identifying and characterizing possible interactions between biological structures and objects, with respect to the initial developmental stages of Echinococcus granulosus. By adopting the surface of the foramen as the distance reference, several interesting results have been identified, including the fact that the cell nuclei tend to be organized with respect to the foramen surface as well as the stability of the spatial distribution of these nuclei along the development stages.
