It is becoming increasingly apparent that precise knowledge of the anatomic features of muscle, aponeurosis, and tendons is necessary for understanding how a muscle-tendon complex generates force and accomplishes length changes. This report presents both anatomic and functional data from the human soleus muscle acquired by using magnetic resonance imaging. The results show a strong relationship between the complex three-dimensional structure of the muscle-tendon system and the intramuscular distribution of tissue velocities during in vivo isometric contractions. The proximal region of the muscle is unipennate, whereas the midregion has a radially bipennate hemicylindrical structure, and the distal region is quadripennate. Tissue velocity mapping shows that the highest velocity regions overlay the aponeuroses connected to the Achilles tendon. These are located on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the muscle. The lowest velocities overlay the aponeuroses connected to the origin of the muscle and are generally located intramuscularly.
