Background An experimental imaging platform for longitudinal monitoring and evaluation of
cardiac morphology-function changes has been long desired. We sought to establish such a …

To understand the structure–function relationship in the postinfarcted myocardium in rabbits,
we induced cardiac ischemia by ligating the left circumflex coronary artery. Sham controls …

Background Myocardial infarction (MI) survivors are at risk of complications including heart
failure and malignant arrhythmias. Purpose We undertook serial imaging of swine following …

Objectives: We sought to monitor the evolution of noninfarcted and infarcted myocardium
function in the process of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after a reperfused myocardial …

Background—The objective of this study was to noninvasively determine the effects of
reperfused myocardial infarction (MI) on regional and global left-ventricular (LV) function 24 …

Background The aim of this article is to present an optimized acquisition and analysis
protocol for the echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricle (LV) remodeling in a mouse …

This study evaluated the utility of cardiac MRI for assessing the impact of myocardial
infarction (MI) on cardiac structure and function in mice following reperfused 1‐or 2‐hr …

Novel therapeutic strategies aiming at improving the healing process after an acute
myocardial infarction are currently under intense investigation. The mouse model plays a …

To further understanding of the temporal evolution and pathophysiology of adverse
ventricular remodeling over the first 60 days following a myocardial infarction (MI) in both the …

Background: Left ventricular (LV) remodeling is a highly complex phenomenon that starts
soon after infarction and progresses to extensive regional and global architectural changes …
