Radiographic Left Atrial Size Measurement of Dogs in Different Mitral Valve Disease Stages with Four Different Methods by David Marbella Fernández, Jose Alberto Montoya-Alonso

“…The left atrial size increases (LAS) in patients with mitral valve disease (MVD) as the disease progresses. The vertebral left atrial size (VLAS), the modified-vertebral left atrial size (M-VLAS), and the radiographic left atrial dimension (RLAD) are methods reported to assess LAS on dogs’ radiographs. …”

Real‐Time 3‐Dimensional Echocardiographic Assessment of Effective Regurgitant Orifice Area in Dogs With Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease by A. Tidholm, A. Bodegård‐Westling, K. Höglund, J. Häggström, I. Ljungvall

“…However, this simplified assumption only holds when the EROA is circular, which might not be true in dogs with myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD). Hypothesis Effective regurgitant orifice area in dogs with MMVD is noncircular, and using color Doppler real‐time 3‐dimensional (RT3D) echocardiography, measured EROA in the en face view will be significantly different from calculated EROA. …”
