Terminal Duct Lobular Unit. Microscopic anatomy of normal female breast tissue showing a terminal duct lobular unit (×10). The ducts and lobules lumens are open as the epithelial cells do not distend them. Note that the epithelial nuclei overlap, are small and are round, and the nucleoli are inconspicuous and consistent with benign breast tissue. Contributed by M Khan, DO
