The document discusses echocardiographic features of cardiomyopathy, focusing on dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). DCM is characterized by dilation of all four chambers and reduced systolic function, while HCM is defined by asymmetrical septal hypertrophy. Key differences between DCM and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) are also highlighted, particularly in wall motion and regional perfusion.
