LV Mass Index Eccentric vs Concentric Hypertrophy

Classify LV geometry as normal, concentric remodeling, concentric hypertrophy, or eccentric hypertrophy using LV mass index and relative wall thickness (RWT).

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Classify LV geometry as normal, concentric remodeling, concentric hypertrophy, or eccentric hypertrophy using LV mass index and relative wall thickness (RWT)

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • LV mass index — The lv mass index recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Relative wall thickness — The relative wall thickness recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the lv mass index pattern result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the LV mass index, relative wall thickness for the scenario you are assessing. Classify LV geometry as normal, concentric remodeling, concentric hypertrophy, or eccentric hypertrophy using LV mass index and relative wall thickness (RWT). Use the lv mass index pattern result to inform your calculation.
