(A) Baseline lymph node assessment for the C57 BL/6 strain treated with the 2 Gy x 30 fractions at 40X and 160X magnification, showing typical architecture at baseline. Cortical areas and paracortical areas are lymphocyte-rich. (B) End of treatment lymph node assessment for the C57 BL/6 strain treated with the 2 Gy x 30 fractions at 40X and 160X magnification. Paracortical, predominantly histiocytic expansions are prominent (*) and lymphocytes are relatively restricted to follicles (**). (C) Recovery lymph node assessment for the C57 BL/6 strain treated with the 2 Gy x 30 fractions at 40X and 160X. Paracortical expansions persist with fibrosis (60X, *) and hilar epitheloid histiocytes and scattered sea-blue histiocytes are prominent. Tingible body macrophages, and pigment-laden macrophages indicating a dermatopathic component to the lymph node changes, were also present (not shown).
