How are Wavy Collagen Bundles Visualized?

Wavy collagen bundles can be visualized using various histological staining techniques. One common method is the Masson's Trichrome stain, which differentiates collagen fibers (blue or green) from other tissue elements. Another method is the use of Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining, where collagen fibers typically appear pink. Polarized light microscopy can also be used to observe the birefringent properties of collagen fibers, further highlighting their wavy structure.
