Regional Variation in Muscle Echogenicity Is Related to Muscle Thickness in Young Children

open access: yesUltrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2021
Quantitative ultrasound of muscle echogenicity may be influenced by the size of the muscle and, so, corrections may be required when comparing echogenicity between populations with different muscle size. This study examined the relationship between regional muscle echogenicity and geometry in young, typically developing children (n = 49, mean ...

THICK FILAMENTS IN VASCULAR SMOOTH MUSCLE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1971
Two sets of myofilaments were demonstrated after incubation of strips of rabbit portal-anterior mesenteric vein under moderate stretch in a physiological salt solution. Thick filaments had a mean diameter of 18 nm and reached a maximum length of 1.4 µm with a mean length of 0.61 µm.
