Echocardiography is the gold standard imaging modality to diagnose hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats. Echocardiographic features can predict both cats at an increased risk of developing HCM and cats with HCM at an increased risk of developing cardiovascular events or experiencing cardiac death. Left atrial dysfunction seems to be an important feature of HCM, as it is an early phenotypic abnormality and is also associated with worse outcome.
超声心动图是诊断猫肥厚型心肌病(HCM)的金标准成像方式。超声心动图特征既可以预测患HCM风险增加的猫,也可以预测患HCM且发生心血管事件或心脏死亡风险增加的猫。左心房功能障碍似乎是HCM的一个重要特征,因为它是一种早期表型异常,并且还与更差的预后相关。
