What are the body size-independent reference intervals for echocardiographic measurements of left heart size and function in healthy dogs?
This study provides body size-independent reference intervals for echocardiographic measurements of left heart size and function in healthy dogs for veterinary clinical use.
Body size-independent RIs for several linear, area, and volume measurements of LA and LV size and function were generated prospectively from a large and diverse reference population and are available for clinical use.
Visser et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
