Myocardial infarction (MI) is the common cause of heart failure, which happens following a myocardial ischemia. Left ventricular (LV) remodeling has been associated with the long-term outcomes following MI. The infarct region is growing and becoming stiffen over time as a result of remodeling, causi...
