Tei index of myocardial performance in conscious healthy Beagles

The Tei index of myocardial performance is a noninvasive echocardiographic parameter that combines systolic and diastolic time intervals to assess global cardiac performance. It was demonstrated to be a reliable indicator of myocardial dysfunction in dogs with varying clinical conditions. Because on...
