Vasculature of the crista ampullaris of the rat as seen in microcorrosion casts.
A scanning electron microscope study of corrosion cast preparations of the vessels of the crista ampullaris was carried out in adult rats. This method shows the microvasculature of the cristae in the three-dimensional model. As a result of this technique we have been able to demonstrate on microscopical level a particular microvasculature in the septum cruciatum of the crista in rat.
