File:IPLab4MuralThrombus7.jpg|This high-power photomicrograph of thrombus demonstrates more clearly the components of the layers--the pale regions which contain primarily platelets (degranulated platelets) with some fibrin (1), and the red areas which contain RBCs, some leukocytes, and fibrin (2).

== Study Questions ==
* This process results in the development of a platelet-fibrin thrombus.</spoiler>
* <spoiler text="What are possible sequelae of these mural thrombi?">The thrombotic material may break off and go to the brain or kidney (the two most likely sites since they get so much blood flow) or any arterial system.</spoiler>
