A MRI scan is usually ordered to better visualize the damage to each of the components of the PLC and also to assess the status of the meniscus and articular cartilage of the knee. In certain cases where the PLC suffers a âsprainâ or a minor tear the injury may be able to be treated with non-operative measures.
The junction between a motor neruon's axon and the muscle cell membrane is called a neuromuscular junction or a myoneural junction?
Synaptic cleft is the space between the motor end plate (muscle fiber part) and synaptic end bulb (motor neuron part) of the neuromuscular junction. It is 20 to 30 nanometers wide. Because of this cleft, the connection between the motor neuron and the muscle fiber is not continuous and there is a break.ifference between synapse and neuromuscular junction: Synapses and neuromuscular junctions are physiologically the same, however, the neuromuscular junction is a specific type of synapse that occurs between motor neuron and muscle fiber.
