Acute inflammation

Acute inflammation consists of vascular reaction and cellular response.

Vascular reaction - three important steps - vasodilation, increased vascular permeability and emigration of leukocytes.

Emigration of leukocytes (neutrophils) involves margination,  rolling,  and  adhesion  to  endothelium. 

Here is a picture of MARGINATION OF NEUTROPHILS...
This is seen in an area adjacent to a focus of brain abscess..
