“…Except Sifre-Maunier, Taylor, Berge, Culioli, and Bonny (2006) and Del Moral, O'Valle, Masseroli, and Del Moral (2007), authors have rarely described their method accurately. Image analysis has been used to study the structural characteristics of perimysium thickness Brooks & Savell, 2004;Das et al, 2010;Fang, Nishimura, & Takahashi, 1999;Lachowicz, Zochowska, & Sobczak, 2004;Nishimura, Fang, Wakamatsu, & Takahashi, 2009;Sifre-Maunier et al, 2006;Torrescano et al, 2001) or muscle fibre bundles, but few authors have been interested in endomysium Lachowicz et al, 2004;Torrescano et al, 2001). This may be explained by the fact that the major part of the IMCT is perimysium (Light & Champion, 1984;Light, Champion, Voyle, & Bailey, 1985).…”
