Liver cancer, light micrograph
Light micrograph of hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). The image shows the cancerous cells on the right hand side, whereas normal liver cells are on the left side. Compared to the normal liver cells, the cancerous cells are larger and have more prominent nucleoli in their nuclei (blue dots inside blue circles). A fibrous band (pink, mid picture from top to bottom) separates the tumour and normal areas. Haematoxylin and eosin stained tissue section. Magnification: 200x when printed at 10 cm.
