2021年9月20日 · The objective of the present study was to compare the vertebral heart scale (VHS) and the intercostal space (ICS) to assess changes in the size of the cardiac silhouette of ten healthy dogs.

2016年8月15日 · This classically has been defined as between 2.5 (deep-chested conformation breeds [Setters, Afghans, Collies]) and 3.5 (barrel-chested conformation breeds [Dachshunds, Bulldogs]) intercostal spaces (ICS) in the dog and 2.5 to 3.0 ICS in the cat. The ICS measurement is made at an axis perpendicular to the long axis of the ribs. Thus, the ...

To determine whether ease of access to thoracic structures for performing open‐chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation (OC‐CPR) differed between fourth and fifth intercostal space (ICS) left lateral thoracotomies in dogs, and to determine if “shingling” improved access for OC‐CPR manipulations. Prospective single‐blinded study. Laboratory.

A laboratory-maintained colony of English springer spaniel dogs heterozygous for a putative autosomal recessive immotile-cilia syndrome (ICS) has been studied. Matings between dogs thought to be heterozygous for ICS resulted in 22 pups, five (three males and two females) of which were homozygous for …

The VHS is a method that allows veterinarians to evaluate the heart size across dog and cat breeds and provide an accurate assessment of true cardiac enlargement. There is a good correlation when scaling heart size and vertebral body length.

2009年4月17日 · Semi-Quantitative Heart Size Assessment: On the lateral radiograph, the heart should be less than 3 intercostal spaces wide in the dog and 2 ICS in the cat. There are some breeds of dog, such as the chondrodystrophic breeds, where the ICS can reach 3.5 normally. Deep chested-breeds such as Dobermans and boxers should have an ICS of less than 2.

Objective: To determine if the pulmonary to systemic flow ratio (Qp/Qs) could be assessed in healthy awake dogs using Doppler echocardiography. Background: Qp/Qs could provide reliable information in assessing the severity of intracardiac shunts …

It is a common malformation of dogs (but uncommon in cats). The systolic crescendo-decrescendo murmur is heard best over the pulmonic valve (left 2 nd-3 rd ICS) and radiates prominently in a dorsal direction into the post-stenotic dilatation of the main pulmonary artery. Thus, the murmur tends to be heard very well at the dorsal, left, cardiac ...
