Slide 048 Sinusoidal capillary in bone marroe

High-magnification light microscopy image of a bone marrow sinusoid. Numerous hematopoetic cells, stained eosinophilic and basophilic, pack the field. The sinusoid appears as a clear space with a thin endothelial lining and connects to the surrounding tissue; its irregular borders are visible. Cellular nuclei appear as dark spots.

Microscopic view of a sinusoidal capillary within bone marrow. The image shows closely packed blood cells stained in shades of red and purple, surrounding the capillary space. The irregular shape of the sinusoid facilitates exchange between the blood and marrow.
