Angiocardiography in Canine Heartworm Disease
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1970SUMMARY To study heartworm disease (Dirofilana immitis), angiocardiograms (acg) and radiograms were made of 34 infected and 14 normal dogs. Comparison was made of normal and abnormal selective right and left ventriculograms. The following successive phases seemed to be characteristic of the disease and were cumulative: a) Linear lucencies (adult ...

Right Ventricular Enlargement in Heartworm Disease
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1977SUMMARY The size of the right ventricle of 15 dogs with spontaneous Dirofilaria immitis microfilaria was evaluated by thoracic radiography, electrocardiography, and right ventricular free wall weights. Based on electrocardiography and right ventricular weights, none of the 15 dogs had evidence of right ventricular hypertrophy.

Heartworm disease in animals and humans.
Advances in parasitology, 2008Heartworm disease due to Dirofilaria immitis continues to cause severe disease and even death in dogs and other animals in many parts of the world, even though safe, highly effective and convenient preventatives have been available for the past two decades.

Dirofilaria immitis infection in cats is a recognized clinical problem with increasing incidence and public awareness. Heartworm disease in cats has been reported worldwide and is consistently diagnosed in heartworm endemic areas. There are three methods which have been used in the diagnosis of feline heartworm disease: immunofluorescence tests for ...

Radiology of Heartworm Disease
2018Radiography is valuable for determining the presence and severity of heartworm disease. Survey radiographs of the thorax provide valuable information on the extent and degree of change in the pulmonary parenchyma, pulmonary arteries, and the heart. Radiography provides information about the topographic location and extent of the thoracic disease and ...

Clinical Significance of Feline Heartworm Disease
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1998The clinical signs and diagnostic approach are different in the cat as compared with the dog, which has impaired the veterinarian's ability to detect this parasite in the cat. New techniques and methodologies have enabled the cat owner and veterinarian to recognize this potentially severe disease.

Heartworm disease in dogs: Unusual clinical cases
Veterinary Parasitology, 2005Two unusual cases of heartworm infection are described, including one of spontaneous rupture of cardiac chambers, most likely due to the progressive increase in pressure within the right ventricle caused by Dirofilaria immitis infection. Another case report describes persistent left cranial vena cava, which interfered with the surgical removal of ...

Theoretical and Natural Science
Heartworm disease is a parasitic disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis that affects the pulmonary arteries in canines, causing circulatory disturbances and breathing difficulties. The disease is transmitted through mosquito bites and the worms mature in the heart, lungs, and associated blood vessels of canines.
