 File:IPLab2FattyChange7.jpg|A high-power photomicrograph of the liver parenchyma shows that each individual liver cell is filled with a large, clear droplet which represents the space remaining after lipid was dissolved by the dehydration procedure used to embed the tissue. Note that each empty space is surrounded by a thin rim of eosinophilic cytoplasm; in many instances, the hepatocyte nucleus can be seen as well. The red body (arrow) seen within a cell in the center of the slide is an acidophilic body associated with alcoholic hepatitis.
 File:IPLab2FattyChange8.jpg|An oil red O stain for fat was performed on a frozen section of this liver tissue. The red droplets represent fat in the tissue which is typical of fatty degeneration in the liver. By using frozen sections the tissues do not have to be dehydrated through alcohol solutions and thus the fat does not get washed out.
-File:IPLab2FattyChange9.jpg|This photomicrograph of the liver is from another patient with a history of alcohol use. There are some clear vacuoles indicating fat droplets (1) and there are numerous red-staining granular deposits within the cytoplasm of hepatocytes (2)this is alcoholic hyalin. Alcoholic hyalin is easily distinguished from red blood cells (3) that are also present in this section.

 File:IPLab2FattyChange10.jpg|This is a low-power photomicrograph of liver stained with a trichrome stain. In this section, connective tissue stains green (arrows) and hepatic parenchymal cells are red. Note that many of the parenchymal cells have clear spaces indicating fatty degeneration. The proliferation of scar tissue between the liver lobules is the result of cirrhosis.
 File:IPLab2FattyChange11.jpg|This gross photograph of liver demonstrates severe nodular cirrhosis. Note the extensive scarring of the capsule and the nodular projections of tissue through the uncut capsule in this tissue. The green color is due to the accumulation of bile pigment.
