“…Along with human ventricular models, which are discussed in detail below, ventricular models have been developed for guinea pig (Luo and Rudy 1991, Nordin 1993, Luo and Rudy 1994, Noble et al 1998, Faber and Rudy 2000, canine , Fox et al 2002, Greenstein and Winslow 2002, Cabo and Boyden 2003, Hund and Rudy 2004, Flaim et al 2006, rabbit (Puglisi and Bers 2001, Shannon et al 2004, Mahajan et al 2008, rat (Pandit et al 2001), and mouse (Bondarenko et al 2004, Wang andSobie 2008). The existence of species-specific ventricular models is a significant improvement over earlier, more generic ventricular models and recognises the differences in current contributions across species.…”
