Quantitative assessment of left ventricular volume and function by transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, ultrasound velocity dilution, and gated magnetic resonance imaging in healthy foals.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: All assessed modalities yielded clinically acceptable measurements of LVEDV, LVESV, and function, but those measurements should not be used interchangeably when monitoring patient progress. PMID: 33251841 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]
