Overview
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with Folate deficiency.However, an echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis of Anemia, as a complication of Folate deficiency.Anemia can lead to significant load on heart as it causes a state of hyperdynamic circulation in the body.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
On echocardiography, these findings may be seen[1]
- Increased thickness of left ventricular wall.
- Increased volume of left ventricular cavity.
- Systolic dysfunction and diastolic dysfunction in some cases
