Comparison of 111In Leakage from Labeled Endocardial and Epicardial Cells: Impact on Modeling Viability of Cells to Be Transplanted into Myocardium
Figure 4
Digital images of ex vivo myocardial tissue confirming endocardial (dotted line circles) and epicardial (solid line circles) injections with tissue dye in normal tissue of representative canines. As noted during gross examination of the heart, needle punctures identified epicardial injection within the region of the left anterior descending coronary artery while endocardial injections were placed closer to the apex.
