Popis: The bulk density of the intramyocardial arteries is shown to be equal to the sum of their bulk densities obtained from the results of planimetric measurements in three mutually perpendicular histological sections. To avoid systematic erros, only those vessels in which the ratio between the short (D) and long (L) diameter of the cross sections (D/L) is not less than 0.707 should be examined planimetrically. Examples of calculation of the bulk density of the intramyocardial vessels of the human heart are given. It is shown that the bulk density of the arteries in different parts of the human myocardium is not identical.
