In [[pennate muscle]]s, the '''physiological cross-sectional area''' (PCSA), as opposed to the anatomical one (ACSA), is the  total area of the cross-sections perpendicular to the muscle fibers.
 
== Definition ==
 
One advantage of pennate muscles is that more muscle fibers can be packed in parallel, thus allowing the muscle to produce more force, although the fiber angle to the direction of action means that the maximum force in that direction is somewhat less than the maximum force in the fiber direction.<ref name = Gans>

The muscle cross-sectional area (blue line in figure 1, also known as anatomical cross-section area, or ACSA) does not accurately represent the number of muscle fibers in the muscle. A better estimate is provided by the total area of the cross-sections perpendicular to the muscle fibers (green lines in figure 1). This measure is known as the physiological cross-sectional area (PCSA), and is commonly calculated and defined by the following formula, developed in 1975 by Alexander and Vernon:<ref>

:<math>\text{PCSA} = {\text{muscle volume} \over \text{fiber length}} =
                    {\text{muscle mass}  \over {\rho \cdot \text{fiber length}}},</math>
 
where ρ is the density of the muscle:  
:<math>\rho = {\text{muscle mass} \over \text{muscle volume}}.</math>
 
PCSA increases with pennation angle, and with muscle length. In a pennate muscle, PCSA is always larger than ACSA. In a non-pennate muscle, it coincides with ACSA.
 
=== Estimating muscle force from PCSA ===
The total force exerted by the fibers in their oblique direction is proportional to PCSA. If the ''specific tension'' of the muscle fibers is known (force exerted by the fibers per unit of PCSA), it can be computed as follows:<ref name="Sacks">R.D. Sacks, R.R. Roy (1982). Architecture of The Hind Limb Muscles of Cats: Functional Significance. Journal of Morphology, 185–195.</ref>
 
:<math>\text{Total force} = \text{PCSA} \cdot \text{Specific tension}</math>
 
However, only a component of that force can be used to pull the tendon in the desired direction. This component, which is the true ''muscle force'' (also called ''tendon force''<ref name="Maganaris" />), is exerted along the direction of action of the muscle:<ref name="Maganaris"/>
 
:<math>\text{Muscle force} = \text{Total force} \cdot cos \Phi</math>
 
The other component, orthogonal to the direction of action of the muscle (Orthogonal force = Total force × sinΦ) is not exerted on the tendon, but simply squeezes the muscle, by pulling its aponeuroses toward each other.
 
Notice that, although it is practically convenient to compute PCSA based on volume or mass and fiber length, PCSA (and therefore the total fiber force, which is proportional to PCSA) is not proportional to muscle mass or fiber length alone. Namely, the maximum ([[tetanic contraction|tetanic]]) force of a muscle fiber simply depends on its thickness (cross-section area) and [[Skeletal muscle#Muscle fibers|type]]. By no means it depends on its mass or length alone. For instance, when muscle mass increases due to [[Human development (biology)|physical development]] during childhood, this may be only due to an increase in length of the muscle fibers, with no change in fiber thickness (PCSA) or fiber type. In this case, an increase in mass does not produce an increase in force.
 
Sometimes, the increase in mass is associated with an increase in thickness. Only in this case it will have some effect on fiber force, but this effect will be proportional to the increase in thickness, not to the increase in mass. For instance, in some stages of physical development, the increase in mass may be due to both an increase in PCSA and in fiber length. Even in this case, muscle force does not increase as much as muscle mass does, because the mass increase is partly produced by a variation in fiber length, and fiber length has no effect on muscle force.
 
== Alternative definition ==
In 1987 a different definition of PCSA, herein denoted PCSA<sub>2</sub>, to facilitate comparison with the previous definition, was introduced by Sacks & Roy:<ref name="Sacks"/>
 
:<math>\text{PCSA}_2 = {\text{muscle volume} \cdot cos \Phi \over \text{fiber length}} =
                      {\text{muscle mass}  \cdot cos \Phi \over {\rho \cdot \text{fiber length}}},</math>
 
The comparison shows that
:<math>\text{PCSA}_2 = \text{PCSA} \cdot cos \Phi.</math>
 
in a pennate muscle, since cosΦ is always smaller than 1, PCSA<sub>2</sub> is always smaller than PCSA. Hence, it cannot be described as the total area of the cross-sections perpendicular to the muscle fibers (green lines in figure 1). It can be interpreted two ways:
# Projection of PCSA (green line in figure 1) on the anatomical cross-section plane (blue line).<ref>This is because the angle between the anatomical and physiological cross-section planes (angle between blue line and green line in figure 1) coincides with &Phi;, by definition.</ref>
# ACSA of a non-pennate muscle with the same force as the pennate muscle.<ref>In a non-pennate muscle, ACSA = Muscle force / Specific tension, and Muscle force = PCSA<sub>2</sub> × Specific tension, hence PCSA<sub>2</sub> = Muscle force / Specific tension = ACSA.</ref>
 
This implies that, in a muscle such as that in figure 1A, PCSA<sub>2</sub> coincides with ACSA. The disadvantage of this definition is its more complex interpretation, its advantage is that muscle force can be computed more directly:
 
:<math>\text{Muscle force} = \text{PCSA}_2 \cdot \text{Specific tension}</math><ref name="Sacks"/>
 
Currently, some authors keep using the original definition of PCSA,<ref name="Narici" /><ref name="Maganaris" /> probably because of its intuitively appealing geometrical interpretation (figure 1).
