Bulls-eye plots depict average maximum (A) and minimum (B) principal strains ( ε 1 , ε 3 ) for the five animals. The LV was represented by twenty-two concentric circles starting from the apex (inner circle) to the base (outer circle) and divided into twelve sectors in the circumferential direction. The circumferential sections represent six anatomical regions: anterior septum (AS), posterior septum (PS), posterior wall (PST), posterolateral (PL), anterolateral (AL), and anterior (ANT).
