Figure 2
The Normal Adult Human Liver Biopsy: A Quantitative Reference Standard

Fig. 2. Venn diagram depicting the number of portal tracts per biopsy
containing bile ducts (BD1), hepatic arteries, and portal veins. As portal tracts
were defined as having at least two profiles (see Methods), portal tracts with
bile ducts, hepatic arteries, or portal veins alone contained at least two of
these classes of structures. This diagram depicts only the distribution of bile
ducts (BD1) within portal tracts, and does not include the distribution of probable
canals of Hering (BD2) profiles (see Patients and Methods for definitions).
