The mice were anesthetized with isoflurane and fixed on the thermostatic plate of the super high-frequency system. An ultrasonic diagnostic instrument for small animals was used with a central frequency of 30 MHz for ultrasonic examination. The EF and FS of mice were measured by Vevo software developed by VisualSonics in Toronto, Canada.
