Image of edema in the skeletal muscle from a male F344/N rat in a chronic study
Skeletal muscle - Edema in a male F344/N rat from a chronic study. Muscle fibers and muscle bundles are separated by expanded interstitial spaces filled with pale pink material.

Skeletal muscle - Edema in a male F344/N rat from a chronic study (higher magnification of Figure 1). There are separated muscle fibers and muscle bundles due to an accumulation of pale pink interstitial material.

Skeletal muscle - Edema in a male F344/N rat from a chronic study. A longitudinal section of skeletal muscle shows expansion of the interstitial spaces due to an accumulation of poorly stained edema fluid.

Skeletal muscle - Edema in a male F344/N rat from a chronic study (higher magnification of Figure 3). Interstitial spaces are expanded by poorly stained edema fluid.

Skeletal muscle - Normal in a male B6C3F1/N mouse from a subchronic study. Expanded interstitial space caused by fixation and/or sectioning artifact.
