Representative H&E images of colon cancer patient’s adjacent normal tissue biopsy exhibit colorectal pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium, no cell atypia. Whereas tumor biopsy from the same patient shows loss of normal glandular architecture, marked nuclear atypia with prominent nucleoli and a high nucleus-to-cytoplasm ratio, all of which is a hallmark of cancer/ cellular transformation (Scale - 200 um).
