  • Title: Echocardiography. Acquired heart disease.
    Author: Bonagura JD, Herring DS.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 1985 Nov; 15(6):1209-24. PubMed ID: 3878619.
    Abstract:
    Acquired disease of the cardiac valves, myocardium, and pericardium may be recognized through echocardiography. Quantitation of atrial and ventricular dimensions is a key aspect in the echocardiographic evaluation of acquired heart diseases. Subjective interpretation permits identification of pericardial effusion, dilated cardiomyopathy, valvular lesions, cardiac masses, and abnormal blood flow.
