Table III. Assessment of diastolic transmitral flow and left ventriclesystolic function using pulsed wave tissue doppler imaging at the lateralmitral annulus, at baseline and at 6 months after chemotherapyinitialization.

E: Peak early diastolic trans mitral flow velocity, A: peak late diastolictrans mitral flow velocity, S’: peak mitral annulus systolic velocity, E’:peak early mitral annular diastolic velocity, A’: peak late mitral annulardiastolic velocity, E/A: ratio of maximum velocity of diastolic fillingand maximum velocity of late diastolic filling through atrial contraction,E’/A’: ratio of early mitral annular diastolic velocity and late mitralannular diastolic velocity, E/E’: ratio of maximum velocity of diastolicfilling and diastolic relaxation.
