Septal-to-basal ventricular peak activation time determined by vectorcardiography as a potential new pre-screening parameter for preclinical dilated cardiomyopathy in Doberman Pinschers
In conclusion, SB-VPAT is a sensitive parameter to detect systolic dysfunction associated with preclinical DCM stage B2. Further investigation of its diagnostic potential compared to or in combination with other tools in a primary care veterinary setting is warranted.
