How to perform an accurate assessment of cardiac function in mice using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging.
High-resolution magnetic resonance cine imaging (cine-MRI) is a method that allows for a non-invasive assessment of left ventricular function and mass. To perform this quantitation, hearts are imaged from the base to the apex by a stack of two-dimensional images. Thus, analysis of myocardial mass an...
