What is Steatosis and How is it Identified Histologically?
Steatosis, or fatty liver, involves the accumulation of fat in hepatocytes. Histologically, this condition is identified by the presence of clear, lipid-filled vacuoles within the hepatocytes, often displacing the nucleus to the cell's periphery. This can be observed using special stains like Oil Red O or H&E staining under a light microscope.
