The core value of classical histological special staining is to further distinguish structures such as muscle fibers, collagen fibers, elastic fibers, reticular fibers, fibrin, and neuroglial fibers on the basis of HE staining. PTAH, Masson, VG, elastic fiber staining, and reticular fiber ...
In tissue sections, collagen fibers, muscle fibers, and fibrin may all appear as fibrous, fascicular, cord-like, or reticular structures. In routine hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, they often show varying degrees of eosinophilic red staining. Their differentiation should be based on tissue ...
