Supports altered diastolic filling assessment via Doppler in dilated cardiomyopathy; leaves open its role in risk stratification or management.

Outcome

Mitral anulus motion and its relation to pulmonary venous and transmitral flowssurrogate

Doppler echocardiography demonstrates that mitral anulus motion is markedly reduced or absent in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, which alters normal diastolic filling dynamics.
