Apoptosis vs. pathological necrosis. This image was taken from a breast cancer case. The area to the left of the yellow line is pathologically called necrosis, while the nucleated cells indicated by the arrows are undergoing apoptosis. This illustrates that the term “necrosis” in pathology often refers to extensive cell death, which can include both apoptosis and other forms of cell death. Bar = 20 µm.
