Notes: Summary Quantitative electron microscopic studies have been carried out on the human thymus. According to the equation L v =(2n)/F (Hennig, 1963) we have calculated that there is less than 0.204 mm nerve per 1 mm3 thymus tissue inside the blood-thymus-barrier (level of significance of 0.95). This result is compared to the degree of innervation in brown adipose tissue, which contains more than 160 mm nerve per 1 mm3 tissue. The biological significance of the paucity of neuronal elements in the thymus is undetermined.
