Muscular atrophy, light micrograph
Muscular atrophy. Light micrograph of a section through muscle fibres showing an area affected by neurogenic muscular atrophy (bottom right). Normal muscle fibres are seen at top left. Nerve damage has lead to the muscle fibres becoming shrunken and atrophied (wasted). It is only the muscle fibres controlled by the damaged nerves that are affected.
