Figure 6

Primary pathology finding from group A 5 WMS study. (A) Image of a cross-section of the lung at the point of max dose. A yellow box is drawn to indicate where the sample was taken. The lung is discolored suggesting hemorrhaging is observed. (B) Enlarged image of the slide created from this sample’s H&E stain. The stain confirms the proliferation of blood vessels into the lung parenchyma in an area of fibrosis. This was observed in 4 out of 5 WMS.
