Preferred Label : Estimated Mass of Left Ventricle;
NCIt related terms : Left Ventricular Mass, Estimated; LVMAS_E;
Alternative definition : CDISC: The weight of the left ventricle in grams as estimated by a formula that uses
estimated measurements from echocardiographic exams, as well as constants like the
specific gravity of the myocardium. Left ventricular mass is estimated using the following
equation, LV Mass (g) 0.8 {1.04[([LVEDD IVSd PWd] 3 - LVEDD 3)]} 0.6, where
LVEDD is LV end-diastolic dimension, IVSd is interventricular septal thickness at
end-diastole, and PWd is posterior wall thickness at end-diastole.;
