In vivo stretched rat Achilles tendon at SEM. In a completely flattened crimp the stretched collagen fibrils run straight and parallel still showing knots similar but different to the fibrillar crimps observed in relaxed tendons: fibrils still twist leftwards, running straight in two different parallel planes, but not bending. Bar = 1 μm.
