Fig. 8

Exemplary demonstration of global myocardial work index changes during the experiment. a, b relation of left/right ventricular pressure to global left/right ventricular strain over time. Comparable to a PV-loop, this allows to gain insights on myocardial workload and function. c example of spatial distribution of right and left ventricular myocardial work index. Myocardial work indices are color coded from red to blue, where red color indicate the maximum value and blue the lowest myocardial work index value
