Figure 2 Myocardial contrast echocardiography images in one dog demonstrating decrease in risk area size. On day 0 (panel A) there is a large anteroseptal and anterior perfusion defect during transient acute LAD occlusion (region between arrows), which is no longer present during chronic occlusion six weeks later (panel B). The curved double yellow lines schematically indicate the anterior right ventricular-left ventricular junction.
