How Does Inflammation Appear in Histological Sections?
Inflammation is a key immune response and can be identified histologically by the presence of immune cells, tissue edema, and increased vascular permeability. Acute inflammation often shows abundant neutrophils, while chronic inflammation is characterized by the presence of lymphocytes, plasma cells, and fibroblasts. Granulomas, which are aggregates of macrophages, may also be observed in chronic inflammatory conditions.
