Perhaps the best mode, according to Dr. Budd,^ to get a generalidea of the structure of the liver is to examine under the microscope,—first^ a thin slice of liver, in which the portal and hepatic veinsare thoroughly injected; and secondly^—a small particle taken fromthe lobular substance of a fresh liver, in which the bloodvessels areempty, as in an animal killed by bleeding.
