Figure 2

Vasculature of normal ovaries and representative H&E histological images: the ovarian cortex (top) and the venous plexus (bottom). Scale bar: 500 μm. Note that the qualitative comparison of this example and the following examples, Figs. 3, 5 and 6, is based on representative H&Es obtained in the approximate area imaged with the OR-PAM. The need for tissue fixation, processing and sectioning in the pathology laboratory places a limit on our ability to exactly match an H&E section with the area imaged by OR-PAM on fresh tissue.
