Cardiac function by echocardiography in CXMD J A: Sequential studies in echocardiographic parameters with advancing age in normal and CXMDJ dogs. LVIDd (mm), IVS and PW thickness (mm), and FS (%) in a normal littermate III-301MN (open circle), and the CXMDJ dogs III-302MA (closed circle) and III-303MA (closed square) at 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21 months of age. B: M-mode echocardiogram in a normal littermate III-301MN, compared to the CXMDJ dog III-302MA at 21 months of age. Hypokinesis of the left ventricular posterior wall was observed in the CXMDJ dog.
