Reproducibility of two-dimensional exercise echocardiography

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1989
To determine the reproducibility of two-dimensional exercise echocardiography, duplicate studies were performed on the same patients a median of 14 days apart. Because measurements are operator-dependent, interobserver variability was calculated for two experienced readers who interpreted the findings independently in a blinded manner. A high degree of

A Case of a Small-Breed Dog with Diet-Related Dilated Cardiomyopathy Showing Marked Improvements in Cardiac Morphology and Function after Dietary Modification

Veterinary Sciences, 2022
An 11-year-old intact female Papillion weighing 2.1 kg was referred to our institution with the main complaint of shallow, rapid breathing. At the first visit (day 0), although clinical signs improved due to the use of medication from the primary ...

Use of speckle-tracking strain in preload-dependent patients, need for cautious interpretation!

Annals of Intensive Care, 2018
Background In critical patients, left ventricular ejection fraction and fractional shortening are used to reflect left ventricular systolic function. An emerging technique, two-dimensional-strain echocardiography, allows assessment of the left ventricle ...

Pericardiocentesis assisted by two-dimensional echocardiography

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1983
Pericardiocentesis assisted by two-dimensional echocardiography was performed in 40 patients with effusions of various types and causes; no complications occurred. This approach combines several advantages, including visualization of the fluid-filled sac and determination of its location, estimation of the amount of fluid, and identification of ...

Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of left ventricular systolic function indices and structure in detecting early systolic dysfunction assessed by speckle-tracking two-dimensional strain: An echocardiographic cross-sectional study

Research in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Background: Reduced global longitudinal strain (GLS) is an early marker of subclinical left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, permitting timely interventions to slow disease progression.

Two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiographic findings of congenital coronary artery fistula

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 1992
Three patients with coronary artery fistula confirmed by coronary angiography and surgery were studied using two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography. Two of these patients had left coronary artery-right ventricle fistula.

Two-dimensional echocardiography in endomyocardial disease [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1983
Summary To assess the usefulness of two-dimensional echocardiography in the diagnosis of endomyocardial disease, 7 subjects with this disorder, proved by angiography or necropsy, were studied. Typical echographic findings included apical obliteration of either one or both ventricles by an echogenic mass with preserved systolic inwards ...
