File:IPLab1Tuberculosis1.jpg|This is a gross photograph of a cut section of lung from this patient with disseminated tuberculosis. The numerous small white nodules scattered throughout this lung tissue represent individual tuberculosis granulomas. In addition, note the dark areas throughout the lung which represent deposits of anthracotic pigment.
File:IPLab1Tuberculosis2.jpg|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.
