Variations during ageing in the three-dimensional anatomical arrangement of fascicles within the equine superficial digital flexor tendon

BiTendons are constructed from collagenous fascicles separated by endotenon/interfascicular matrix (IFM). Tendons may be specialised for precision movement or to store energy during locomotion and for the latter the elasticity of the endotenon/IFM is particularly important. The equine superficial di...
