Lung - Infiltration Cellular, Histiocyte

    Narrative
    Lung - Infiltration cellular, Histiocyte in a male Wistar Han rat from a subchronic study. There is a small, subpleural accumulation of alveolar histiocytes.

    Lung - Infiltration cellular, Histiocyte in a female Harlan Sprague-Dawley rat from a chronic study. There is a small, subpleural accumulation of alveolar histiocytes with some thickening of associated alveolar septae.

    Lung - Infiltration cellular, Histiocyte in a control male F344/NTac rat from a subchronic study. There is a focal accumulation of histiocytes in several adjacent alveoli.

    Lung - Infiltration cellular, Histiocyte in a male Wistar Han rat from a subchronic study. These histiocytes contain brown material, which is considered to be the test agent, and this animal would also be diagnosed with foreign material.

    Lung - Infiltration, Cellular, Histiocyte in a male Harlan Sprague-Dawley rat from a subchronic study. These histiocytes contain black material, which is considered to be the test agent; this animal would also be diagnosed with foreign material.
