Echocardiography Of Clinically Normal Dogs
Amira Ahmed Mukhtar Hussien Gad El-Hak;
Abstract
This study was to establish the normal reference echocardiographic values for three dog breeds, and to determine the effect of breed, gender and body weights on echocardio-graphic parameters.
VHS to evaluate the normal size of heart .ECG to detect the normal heart function.
M- mode, two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography were performed on 42 clinically healthy dogs including [20 German shepherd, 12 Golden Retriever and 10 Rottweiler]. Echocardiographic measurements as, left ventricle internal diameter (LVD), as well as left atrial internal diameter (LAD) and aortic diameter (AOD) in early diastole, LAD: AOD ratio was calculated. Fraction shortening (FS) percentage and ejection fraction (EF) percentage, as well as, Mean range and standard deviation of measurements were calculated for the three dog breeds.
Key words: Echocardiography, dog, aortic diameter, Fraction shortening.
