This is a cut section of a lung from the preceding image. Note the whitish discoloration of the lung tissue in the upper lobe (arrows) compared to the normal collapsed and pink staining lung lobe in the left-hand portion of the photograph. The white discoloration in this tissue is due to infiltration of leukocytes (primarily neutrophils). Note that only one lobe of the lung is involved in this patient with lobar pneumonia.
