## Abstract Studies on medical therapy in heart failure are focused on changes of left ventricular (LV) dimensions and function. These changes may be small, requiring a large study group. We measured LV parameters (LV volumes, LV ejection fraction (LVβEF), and left ventricular mass (LVM)) with twoβ
## Abstract ## Background: We and others have shown previously that left ventricular (LV) contractile reserve assessed quantitatively by highβdose dobutamine stressβechocardiography (DSE) has prognostic implications in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. ## Purpose: To assess the feasibility o
