Figure 4.
Passive myofiber stiffness curves in left ventricle (LV) endocardium (endo) and epicardium (epi) from normal and heart failure (HF) dogs. Stiffness is increased in the HF epicardium as compared to HF endocardium and normal epicardium or endocardium (p<0.05 for all). Bars are standard deviations.
