Figure 1. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging.

Figure 1

(A) Axial mid-papillary CMR image. (B) Schematic cross-sectional representation of the left ventricular (LV) short axis depicting the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) and relationship to the anterior (A) region of the LV. RV, Right ventricle; AS, anterior septum; A, anterior; AL, anterolateral; PL, posterolateral; P, posterior; PS, posteroseptal; LCx, Left circumflex coronary artery. (C) Regional wall motion analysis using CMR circumferential strain demonstrates no difference in anterior wall function between the HCD and HCD-R groups at baseline (pre-ischemia, p= 0.7) (D) After 7 weeks of ischemia, the anterior wall function is significantly increased in the HCD-R group as compared to the HCD (*p= 0.01). HCD, high cholesterol diet; HCD-R, high cholesterol diet with orally supplemented resveratrol.
