Myocardial infarction (MI) results in adverse cardiac remodeling leading to heart failure and
increased mortality. Experimental mouse models of MI are extensively used to identify …

Background The assessment of post-myocardial infarction (MI) left ventricular (LV)
remodeling by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) currently uses criteria defined by …

Left ventricular remodelling is a complex process by which mechanical, neurohormonal and
genetic factors alter ventricular structure and function leading to reduced mechanical …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to provide the first in vivo validation of a three‐
dimensional (3D) method to quantify regional left ventricular (LV) function with cardiac …

Purpose To establish the accuracy, intra‐and inter‐observer variabilities of four different
segmentation methods for measuring cardiac functional parameters in healthy and infarcted …

The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for
assessment of the infarcted rat and mouse heart and to compare the results with established …

The aim of this study was to determine whether high‐temporal‐resolution (HTR) cardiac cine‐
MRI could be used to identify subtle alterations in contractility and diastolic function in rodent …

Background Progressive heart failure due to remodeling is a major cause of morbidity and
mortality following myocardial infarction. Conventional clinical imaging measures global …

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 …

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 …
