Cardiomyoplasty Improves Contractile Reserve after Myocardial Injury in Mice: Functional and Morphological Investigations with Reconstructive Three-Dimensional Echocardiography

Cellular cardiomyoplasty (CMP) is a novel therapeutic approach to myocardial injury (MI). Post-MI remodeling of the left ventricle (LV) comprises dilatation and impairment of systolic function and gives rise to progressive hemodynamic deterioration. We aimed to investigate: a) the impact of CMP on g...
