Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]
Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Quantification of left ventricular longitudinal strain, strain rate, velocity and displacement in healthy horses by 2-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]
Background: The quantification of equine left ventricular (LV) function is generally limited to short-axis M-mode measurements. However, LV deformation is 3-dimensional (3D) and consists of longitudinal shortening, circumferential shortening, and radial ...

Prognostic value of echocardiographic indices of left atrial morphology and function in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease [PDF]
Background: The prognostic relevance of left atrial (LA) morphological and functional variables, including those derived from speckle tracking echocardiography (STE), has been little investigated in veterinary medicine.

Soluble ST2 levels and left ventricular structure and function in patients with metabolic syndrome [PDF]
Background: A biomarker that is of great interest in relation to adverse cardiovascular events is soluble ST2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin family.

Echocardiography Imaging of the Right Ventricle: Focus on Three-Dimensional Echocardiography
Right ventricular function strongly predicts cardiac death and adverse cardiac events in patients with cardiac diseases. However, the accurate right ventricular assessment by two-dimensional echocardiography is limited due to its complex anatomy, shape ...
