From: The effect of long-term amiodarone administration on myocardial fibrosis and evolution of left ventricular remodeling in a porcine model of ischemic cardiomyopathy

Fig. 1

Chronic amiodarone administration post-myocardial infarction is not associated with increased myocardial interstitial fibrosis. Representative Masson’s trichrome-stained slides from an experimental animal randomized to receive chronic amiodarone administration (top) and a control animal (bottom). The absolute change in myocardial interstitial fibrosis (expressed as % of myocardium) between baseline (induction of myocardial infarction) and 3 months post-myocardial infarction is presented on the right. No increase in myocardial interstitial fibrosis was observed in animals receiving long-term amiodarone administration, compared to control animals
