Appellants do not direct us to, and we do not find, a specific definition of the term "between" in the Specification. The Specification provides only minimal discussion of the plunger rod and does not list any express limitations of the plunger rod in relation to the handle or body. 

In the absence of a definition or express limitation, we interpret the term as broadly as reasonable and consistent with the Specification. We are mindful, though, not to import limitations from a specification unnecessarily. See E-Pass Techs., Inc. v. 3Com Corp., 343 F.3d 1364, 1369 (Fed. Cir. 2003).
