LV mass & mass index

LV mass by the ASE linear (cube) formula and LV mass index (to BSA), with sex-specific hypertrophy thresholds.

Enter height and weight to derive BSA for indexed results (AVA index, cardiac index). Stays in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.

LV mass = 148 g

Enter height & weight above for the indexed value

Worked steps

  1. ASE cube formula

    LV mass = 0.8 × 1.04 × [(LVIDd+IVSd+PWd)³ − LVIDd³] + 0.6 = 148 g

Reference: ASE/EACVI chamber quantification (2015). Sex-specific LVMi thresholds (>95 g/m² women, >115 g/m² men) require verification at review.
