Clinical Value of Complex Echocardiographic Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Classification Based on Concentricity, Mass, and Volume Quantification

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Echocardiography is the most validated, non-invasive and used approach to assess left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Alternative methods, specifically magnetic resonance imaging, provide high cost and practical challenges in large scale clinical ...

Left ventricular mass is underestimated in overweight children because of incorrect body size variable chosen for normalization.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundLeft ventricular mass normalization for body size is recommended, but a question remains: what is the best body size variable for this normalization-body surface area, height or lean body mass computed based on a predictive equation? Since body
