Description The lumen is on the far right, with no evident endothelium. The tunica intima and tunica media seem to blend together; the two are relatively small compared with more extensive tunica adventitia. Note the vasa vasorum and blue stained collagen fibers that can be identified within the tunica adventitia. Hepatic cords, the primary parenchymal component of the liver, are stained purple; spaces represent sinusoids. UCLA Histology Collection.
