Intraventricular obstructions in dobutamine stress echocardiography: determinants of their development and clinical sequelae

Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) leads to strong hypercontraction, tachycardia, and peripheral vasodilatation. In previous studies systolic obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) was observed as a result of these factors. To evaluate left ventricular function and morphology...
