Although dobutamine stress echocardiography has been used for the preoperative evaluation of patients with advanced liver disease (ALD), no data exist regarding the value of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with real-time myocardial contrast echocardiography (RTMCE) in this patient population. We
The inability to achieve 85% of the maximum predicted heart rate (MPHR) on dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) is defined as chronotropic incompetence and is a predictor of major cardiac events after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). The majority of patients with end-stage liver disease (
