Values are means ± SE; n = 6 dogs. LVEDP, left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic pressure; LVP_max, maximum LV pressure; dP/dt_max and dP/dt_min, peak positive and negative developed pressure over time, respectively; apex-base length, the distance between the apex and the base beads; basal diameter, the distance between the two intramyocardial markers, m₁ and m₂.
