Like the Rings of a Tree

This microscopic image depicts a gallstone sitting in the neck of a gallbladder – a rare sight, because gallstones are usually hard to cut and only rarely show their stunning rings microscopically. Maybe the rings of this gallstone, like those of a tree, carry a meaning – but, as far as I know, nobody has ever described the meaning of these rings.
