Predictive value of left atrial volumes assessed using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography for pulmonary hypertension in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease
In conclusion, LAV indexed to body weight obtained using 2DE and RT3DE, can be a useful predictor of post-capillary PH in dogs with MMVD. In particular, the RT3DE LAVi min was observed to be the strongest predictor of post-capillary PH.
