Assessment of left ventricular function in horses with aortic regurgitation by 2D speckle tracking
Assessment of left ventricular function in horses with aortic regurgitation by 2D speckle tracking
Aortic regurgitation (AR) may lead to left ventricular (LV) dilatation, cardiac arrhythmias and heart failure. Close follow-up of horses with AR is therefore paramount to detect onset of cardiac decompensation.
