​Heart Murmurs & Myopathies

Picture
The presence of any kind of arrhythmia can be an indication of cardiomyopathy, congenital defects and more. Ultrasound is a safe, non-invasive tool to quickly qualify, and often quantify the severity of the condition, and is critical for prescribing the most effective therapy to maximize the quality of life for your pet.

To the left is an echocardiogram (echo or heart ultrasound) of a Boxer being screened for heart disease. The view is of the heart in long axis cross-section LV=left ventricle. The 'graph' at the bottom of the screen is a view of contractility and function. ​
