text: # Intrahepatic bile ducts
  
  Intrahepatic bile ducts compose the outflow system of exocrine bile product from the liver.
  
  They can be divided into:
  
  * Lobar ducts (right and left hepatic ducts) - stratified columnar epithelium.
  * Interlobar ducts (between the main hepatic ducts and the interlobular ducts) - pseudostratified columnar epithelium.
  * Interlobular bile ducts (between the interlobar ducts and the lobules) - simple columnar epithelium.
  * Intralobular bile ducts (cholangioles or Canals of Hering) - simple cuboidal epithelium, then by hepatocytes
  * Bile canaliculi - two half-canaliculi formed by the hepatocytes facing the perisinusoidal space
