Figure 2. Mean (± standard error) values of conventional and advanced echocardiographic measures are displayed for each group of mice.

: vehicle control, banded and then debanded mice, and continually banded mice. Conventional echocardiographic measures include left ventricular mass (Panel A) and relative wall thickness (Panel B). Advanced measures include the signal intensity coefficient (Panel C) and myocardial structural index (Panel D). P values are for Kruskal-Wallis tests of difference between independent groups.
