    What kind of tissue is this?

    As always, the tissue is healthy.

    I’ll post the correct answer in a few days!

    Correct answer:

    This is tissue from the thyroid gland, with the obvious presence of follicles with colloid.

    The follicles produce thyroglobulin, which is bound to hypoiodite and together act as a reservoir for T3 and T4. The follicles are surrounded by connective tissue and a capillary system.
