Staining for hemochromatosis.
The following describes a new method for staining liver tissue in hemochromatosis with cirrhosis of the liver. This new technique produces results that clearly and consistently provide excellent color contrast, depicting both fibrous tissue and hemosiderin on the same slide. The technique is equally valuable for routine surveys of any tissue that may contain hemosiderin pigments and fibrous collagenous tissue.
