Pathology Image Detail
Caption |
639 day old male FVB/NJ mouse. The liver has multiple areas of various sizes in which the hepatic parenchyma is being replaced by large spindle-shaped cells, many of which have a golden brown pigment (hemosiderin) within their cytoplasm. In some areas these are clearly differentiating into vascular structures containing erythrocytes consistent with this being an hemangiosarcoma. Higher magnification of a portion of the 2.5x image. |
