File:IPLab3BrainInfarction2.jpg|This is a gross photograph of a cross-section of brain demonstrating the areas of infarction (arrows).
File:IPLab3BrainInfarction3b.JPG|This is a low-power photomicrograph of this brain at the edge with several areas of the infarctinfarcted tissue. Note the pale areas which correspond to areas with loss of brain parenchyma (arrows).
File:IPLab3BrainInfarction4b.JPG|This is a photomicrograph of the edge of the infarct. Note the numerous inflammatory cells in the brain parenchyma and adjacent to the remaining brain tissue (arrows).
File:IPLab3BrainInfarction5b.JPG|This is a higher-power photomicrograph of the previous image showing that the inflammatory cells (arrows) are primarily macrophages and microglia which have phagocytosed the dead brain tissue.
