(A) Endometriotic lesions have a robust, disorganized vascular network. (B) The mouse ovary is highly vascularized, but the blood vessels have a more uniform appearance, and an even distribution throughout the organ compared to an endometriotic lesion. (C) Anti-mesometrial view of the mouse uterus. The myometrium contains few blood vessels compared to the endometrium, which is also highly vascularized. Images are magnified 100Ă and scale bars represent 100Â Îźm. AMM: Anti-mesometrial myometrium; AME: Anti-mesometrial endometrium. (TIF 510 kb)
