Increased left ventricular mass (LVM) and presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) are predictors of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, but can be reversed with proper treatment of the underlying cause. Therefore accurate as well as reproducible methods for diagnosis and follow-up are needed. We evaluated different modalities by which to measure LVM in patients with no known LVH using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as the gold standard: ECG using the formulae proposed by Sokolow-Lyon and Cornell, 2D echocardiography and 3D echocardiography.
