Population

Canine cardiac muscle (normal and anomalous Z bands)

Intervention

Optical diffraction patterns from electron micrographs

Outcome

Structural relationship and lattice characteristics of Z bands and anomalous Z bands (Z rods)surrogate

Anomalous cardiac Z bands (Z rods) share a common repeating lattice structure with normal Z bands, making them useful for further structural analysis of the Z lattice.
