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.
