Changes in segmental RVLS and SST in a dog model of acute pulmonary embolism. Data are shown as the mean ± standard deviation. (A) Basal and middle free wall RVLS were significantly lower than baseline in acute period, and were return to the baseline level in compensation period. (B) All segmental free wall SST were significant long compared with baseline in acute period. White bar, baseline; black bar, acute period; gray bar, compensation period. A-RV, apical free wall; A-S, apical septum; B-RV, basal free wall; B-S, basal septum; M-RV, middle free wall; M-S, middle septum. RVLS, right ventricular longitudinal strain; SST, systolic shortening time. *P < 0.05 compared with the baseline.
