This is a closer view of the same section of lung containing multiple white granulomas which are now more easily identified (arrows). These lesions are referred to as miliary tuberculosis. Dark areas of anthracosis are also prominent in this lung.

Disseminated tuberculosis refers to the hematogenous spread of tuberculous lesions throughout the body. It is also known as miliary tuberculosis (which is so-called because the lesions resemble millet).
