Why the study?
Does 2D echocardiography using the biplane modified Simpson method allow for the assessment of left atrial function in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease?
Does 2D echocardiography using the biplane modified Simpson method allow for the assessment of left atrial function in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease?
The biplane modified Simpson method using 2D echocardiography is a feasible approach for assessing left atrial function and remodeling in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease.

LA volume by biplane Simpson is feasible in MMVD dogs; leaves open prognostic validation versus linear LA/Ao.
