Lobar pilocytic astrocytoma, H&E stain x40 with arrow

This is a low-power view of the pilocytic astrocytoma. The tumor is the region indicated by the unecessarily large green arrow. Compare to the relatively normal-appearing neuropil in the lower left corner. The tumor can be better seen in the higher-power (200x) image in this same series.
