Longitudinal (first column), circumferential (second column), radial (third column) strain‐time profiles. (A) Comparison of the model predictions with previously published in vivo 2D STE measurements (Dandel et al. 2009; Gorcsan and Tanaka 2011; Hoit 2011). Strain‐time profiles predicted by the model with, (B) different preload (with constant afterload), (C) different afterload (with constant preload) and, (D) different contractility for a representative case (case P2 shown in Fig. 4A and C).
