Prostate intraepithelial neoplasia, light micrograph


Light micrograph of high grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN). On the left side is a prostate gland with hyperchromatic (dark blue) and enlarged lining cells. This change is termed intraepithelial neoplasia, and is seen more frequently in patients with prostate cancer. The gland on the right side of the picture is normal as seen by its lighter colour and smaller lining cells. Haematoxylin and eosin stained tissue section. Magnification: 200x when printed at 10 cm.
