Dense regular connective tissue
This higher magnification of a tendon shows the regular, compact nature of dense regular connective tissue. The fibroblasts, also referred to as tendinocytes in tendons, are highly flattened and aligned with collagen bundles. They have heterochromatic nuclei and minimal cytoplasm. 1000x
