A triple immunofluorescent method suitable for staining capillaries and muscle fibre outlines in thick sections of human skeletal muscle is presented. The capillary network is quantitatively described by the length of capillaries per unit volume of muscle tissue and the length of capillaries supplying individual muscle fibres per unit fibre length, per surface area and per volume. The course of capillaries in the muscle is characterized by the tortuosity, orientation and mean capillary length
