Figure 3 Three-dimensional rendering of the isolated rabbit heart showing how each dataset was sliced at different levels of the left ventricle (top). At each level, a roughly ring-shaped region of interest (ROI) was defined (top, right) to allow video-intensity measurements in three 3.3-mm-thick slices (middle). The effects of contrast enhancement (CE) on the different slices are shown in the bottom panels.
