Abstract
As a sensory receptor the muscle spindle parallels the eye in its physiological and anatomical complexity. For example, it contains three types of intrafusal muscle fibre and is innervated by sensory and motor fibres which can also be further differentiated and classified. But how does the spindle work? In this article L A. Boyd provides some clear answers to what is technically a very complicated question.
