Changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and systolic internal diameter (LVIDs). LVEF decreased immediately following embolization of the D1-LAD artery (a). This decrease in LVEF continued through the 8-week endpoint (a). At 8-weeks post-embolization LVIDs was significantly increased compared to baseline (b). There was an apparent trend to LVIDd enlargement as well throughout the allotted timeframe.
