  		Figure 1 Representative Traces of Myocardial Strains

(Top) Myocardial strains of the left ventricular midinferoseptal segment: left panels = baseline; middle panels = 1 month; right panels = 6 months. (Bottom) Myocardial strains of the left ventricular midlateral segment. Inferoseptal to lateral wall delay in time from electrocardiographic peak R wave to peak systolic strain was 83 ms at baseline, –2 ms at 1 month, and –3 ms at 6 months.
