File:IPLab1Tuberculosis6.jpg|This photomicrograph shows a single nodule with an amorphous eosinophilic center and accumulations of cells around the outer edge. This is typical of a granuloma associated with tuberculosis in which there is a necrotic center (1) and a rim of lymphocytes, macrophages, and occasional multinucleated giant cells around the periphery.

File:IPLab1Tuberculosis7.jpg|This is a higher-power view of the granuloma with the amorphous eosinophilic material representing caseation necrosis (1), giant cells near the center (2), and inflammatory cells around the periphery.

File:IPLab1Tuberculosis8.jpg|This is a high-power photomicrograph of ~~the~~ Langhans-type multinucleated giant ~~cell which is~~ characteristic of tuberculous granulomas ~~(arrow)~~. Note the ~~horseshoe shape~~ of the nuclei in ~~this~~ giant ~~cell. The majority of the cells in the upper left portion of this section are macrophages which provide the major cellular component in a granuloma. Note the smaller number of small blue-staining~~ cells ~~in the peripheral portions of this granuloma to the left of which are lymphocytes~~.
