Abstract
Experimental studies of cardiac function in normal states and during myocardial derangements have played an important role in providing an undertanding of physiologic mechanisms and formulating a rational basis for treatments. Fundamental to such studies are measurements of ventricular dimensions, volumes and segmental wall dynamics, all of which serve to define global and regional cardiac function. These measurements are essential to the assessment of progressive alterations such as the loss of contraction and increased myocardial stiffness which may supervene with ischaemic injury and infarction.
