Attempted Depletion of Passenger Leukocytes by Irradiation in Pigs
Figure 2
Histopathology of kidneys from a pig that received WBI 72 h previously of 700 cGy and a further 800 cGy with both kidneys shielded (H&E, magnification ). (a) A few passenger leukocytes can be detected in the interstitium (arrows). (b) Congestion is present in some peritubular blood vessels. (c) Tubular vacuolization and cloudy swelling of tubular cells are present. (d) Tubular epithelial apoptosis can be detected (arrows).
