Representative echocardiographic acquisitions from each group of rats.
Two-dimensional parasternal long axis images demonstrating increase in wall thickness after ascending aorta banding (LVH) compared to control groups (SHAM, top left panel; SHAM+VAL, top right panel) and reduction in the extent of hypertrophy after chronic valsartan administration (LVH+VAL). Depth: 5mm, digital acquisition speed: 100mm/s.
