The extracellular matrix patch implanted in the right ventricle evaluated with cardiovascular magnetic resonance protocol to assess regional physio-mechanical properties

CONCLUSIONS With the cardiovascular magnetic resonance protocol, we successfully confirmed early signs of functional myocardial regeneration in implanted extracellular matrix patches. This approach is promising in assessing in situ regional physio-mechanical properties and degree of regeneration of implanted tissue-engineered materials.
