| Hodgkins Disease - lymphocyte predominant
| A medium power view of a lymphocyte predominant
Hodgkins disease shows the two characteristic features
of this disease.
Towards the center of this image is a large cell with
abundant cytoplasm and two nuclei.
Notice that these two nuclei have a vesicular chromatin
pattern, with a dark staining rim of chromatin and a
large paler interior.
The two large, deep staining structures at the centers
of these two nuclei are the nucleoli.
Almost every other cell in this field is a small
lymphocyte.
To the right of the Reed-Sternberg cell at the center
of this image is a lymphocyte that appears to be
undergoing mitotic division.
