Figure Caption
Fig. 6
Endocardial wall shear stress (WSS) profiles are compared at different cardiac phases (rows) corresponding to early diastole, mid-diastole and mid-systole, between the wild type zebrafish embryos and in response to chemical and genetic treatments (a) wild type, (b) AG1478, (c) gata1aMO, (d) wea.
The red line in each figure represents ventricular volume variation and the black dot identifies the corresponding instant during the cardiac cycle. All the phases are chosen to be at the same non-dimensionalized time with respect to the cardiac cycle duration (Tc) of each fish. This figure also illustrates the differences in ventricular morphology (volume and deformation) during the cardiac cycle for the chemically and genetically altered fish.
