Elastic artery

At high magnification, the endothelium and underlying connective tissue of the tunica intima are visible in an elastic artery. A few smooth muscle fibers may be present in the tunica intima. The internal elastic lamina is difficult to distinguish from the elastic lamellae in the tunica media. 100x, 1000x
