| High power view of normal adipose tissue - for comparison with a liposarcoma
|
•A high power view of normal adipocytes.
•The green arrows encircle a typical normal adipocyte.
•Much of the cell is composed of a single large globule
of fat that is extracted during the fixation, embedding,
sectioning and staining procedures, leaving behind a
thin rim of cytoplasm.
•This rim of cytoplasm stains eosinophilic and lie at
the tips of the green pointers.
•The typical adipocyte nucleus is condensed and lies
embedded within this rim of cytoplasm.
•Two typical adipocyte nuclei are indicated by the two
black arrows.
