At a slightly higher magnification than the previous image, less stained areas of the pancreas are shown.They are Islets of Langerhans (highlighted in green).
There are also areas of the image with blood vessels, nerves and excretory ducts, surrounded by a small amount of connective tissue (highlighted in yellow).
The remainder of the image is occupied by secretory units of the exocrine pancreas. They are units formed by serous acini.
You will find a detailed description of the serous acini present in the pancreas in Chapter 3 Glandular epithelial tissue, pages 3-11 to 3-15.
