A Potential Utility of Pulsed-Wave Doppler in Iliocaval Outflow Obstruction

Study of Cardiac Parameters by Pulsed Wave Doppler Echocardiography in Normal Healthy Markhoz Goat

Objective- The aim of this study was to test the repeatability, the variability, and to establish the reference values of PW measurements in healthy Markhoz goats.Design- Retrospective study.Animals- 20 female Markhoz goats.Procedure- Using a standardized PW Doppler echocardiographic protocol, 20healthy adult unsedated female Markhoz goats were investigated three times at one-...

Normal pulsed wave Doppler echocardiographic parameters of Turkmen horses of Iran

Turkmen horse is one of the oldest and purest breeds in the world, but there is no information on Doppler echocardiographic parameters in this horse. In the present study, pulsed-wave (PW) Doppler echocardiography was performed on 42 clinically normal 3- to 15-year-old racing Turkmen horses. No cardiac disease was detected with two-dimensional (2-D) real-time, M-mode, and colour flow mapping. D...

Pulsed Doppler assessment of left ventricular diastolic filling in children with left ventricular outflow obstruction before and after balloon angioplasty.

To assess left ventricular (LV) diastolic filling in children with pressure overload hypertrophy, 12 patients with LV outflow obstruction (7 with aortic valve stenosis and 5 with aortic coarctation) and 12 healthy, age-matched control subjects were examined. Each child underwent M-mode echocardiography and pulsed Doppler examination of the LV inflow. The patients with LV outflow obstruction had...

Normal left ventricular systolic time intervals assessed by pulsed wave Doppler echocardiography in the Turkmen horse of Iran

The Turkmen horse is one of the oldest and purest breeds in the world. There is no information with regards to the normal echocardiographic parameters of this horse regarding to cardiac diseases. Pulsed-wave (PW) Doppler echocardiography was performed on 42 clinically normal 3- to 15-year-old racing Turkmen horses. There were 26 stallions and 16 mares. The left ventricular isovolumetric contrac...
