a Portal triads in merged channel images. b Portal triads in vessel channel images. The red arrow indicates the hepatic artery. The yellow arrows indicate the lymphatic vessels. c Portal triads in cytoarchitecture channel images. The blue arrow indicates the bile ducts. d The combination of the reconstructed blood vessels, bile ducts, and lymphatic vessels in the liver. Portal vein is marked with cyan. Hepatic vein is marked with yellow. Bile ducts is marked with purple. Hepatic artery is marked with red. Intrahepatic lymphatic vessel is marked with orange. e–g Structure of hepatic artery, intrahepatic bile ducts, and intrahepatic lymphatic vessel are shown separately. HA hepatic artery, BD bile duct. Scale bar, a–c 20 µm, d–g 1 mm.
