This figure shows the law of Laplace applied to a cross-sectional diagram of LV. The law of Laplace dictates that the LV wall tension is directly proportional to the product of the LV pressure and the LV radius. The LV wall tension is also inversely proportional to the LV wall thickness. LV, left ventricle.
