Histological grading
- Eyelid: + presence of severe edema, which expands the submucosa; ++ multifocal inflammatory infiltrate; +++ coalescing / diffuse inflammatory infiltrate
- Thymus: lymphoid depletion and apoptosis / necrosis of the thymic cortex, + < 20 %; ++ 26 to 50 %; +++ > 50 %
- Cecal tonsil and Bursa: lymphoid depletion / necrosis, + < 20 %, ++ 26 to 50 %; +++ > 50 %
- Spleen: prominent macrophages surrounding the penicillary arteries, +; confluent Schweigger-Seidel sheaths, ++; lymphoid depletion and apoptosis +++; diffuse necrosis and fibrin exudation ++++
- Brain: vascular reactivity, +; perivascular mononuclear cuffing ++

Immunohistochemical grading
- - = no IHC signal present
- + = rare cells in the section are positive on IHC
- ++ = positive cells seen, <50 % of all high power fields (HPF)
- +++ = positive signal seen in > 50 % of HPF
