Liver: Increase in numbers of foci and/or areas affected by cellular infiltration and/or necrosis. Scoring from ±, very few scattered foci of cellular infiltrates and/or necrosis, to ++++, confluency of necrosis in tissue specimens. Spleen: Increase of congestion of sinuses in red pulp and/or of foci of necrosis of white pulp. Scoring from ±, little congestion/very few scattered foci of necrosis, to ++++, extensive congestion/confluency of necrosis in white pulp.
