Medium (muscular) artery
These two images show the details of the tunica intima. This thin layer is composed of an endothelium, a loose subendothelial connective tissue and the wavy, internal elastic lamina. The internal elastic lamina is very prominent in medium, muscular arteries and aids in identifying these vessels. 1000x
