The effects of l-thyroxine (l-T(4)) replacement for subclinical hypothyroidism (SH) on right ventricle (RV) functions has not been previously studied by means of pulsed wave tissue Doppler imaging (PWTDI). We investigated the effects of l-T(4) therapy on RV function in patients with SH using PWTDI.
