Histo-anatomical structure of the living isolated rat heart in two contraction states assessed by diffusion tensor MRI
Deformation and wall-thickening of ventricular myocardium are essential for cardiac pump function. However, insight into the histo-anatomical basis for cardiac tissue re-arrangement during contraction is limited. In this report, we describe dynamic changes in regionally prevailing cardiomyocyte (fib...
