Average systolic peak values of 2DST measurements of left ventricle at the papillary muscles level in goats at baseline (10 goats), immediately after exercise (7 goats) and 24 h after an experimentally-induced myocardial infarction (5 goats). * results significantly different between measurements obtained at rest and immediately after exercise in 7 goats and between measurements obtained before and after myocardial infarction in 5 goats (two-way ANOVA; p < 0.05 considered significant). 2DST: two-dimensional speckle tracking; Dr.: radial displacement; RotR: rotation rate; Sc: circumferential strain; Sr: radial strain; SRc: circumferential strain rate; SRr: radial strain rate
