Current imaging methods provide non-invasive and high
spatial resolution approach, but are load-dependent
since values obtained are influenced by the
end-diastolic volume (preload) and arterial impedance (afterload).
In this work, we developed an MRI method to quantify
regional response to alterations in preload. As a
result, we obtain regional Frank-Starling relations in
infarcted swine.
