    Publication: Contribution to journalJournal articlepeer-review

    Abstract

    Conclusion and clinical importance: The wide variation of LAEF and the fact that LAEF does not appear to be an independent marker of disease severity suggest that the clinical importance of determining LAEF in dogs with MMVD might be limited.
