"definition" : "method to measure the mass of the Left Ventricle via the ASE area-length method at end diastole. LV Mass = 1.05*(5/6*(A1*(L+t)) - 5/6*(A2*L)) A1 = Left Ventricle epicardial SAX area at the level of the papillary muscle tips at end diastole. A2 = Left Ventricle endocardial SAX area cavity area at the level of the papillary muscle tips at end diastole. L = Left Ventricle apical view long axis length at end diastole. t = Myocardial thickness can be computed as: t = sqrt (A1/3.14) - sqrt (A2/3.14) Reference: 1) Schiller, N.B., et al. \\\"Recommendations for Quantification of the LV by Two-dimensional Echocardiography.\\\" J Am Soc Echo, Vol. 2, No. 5: 358-367, Sep-Oct 1989. 2) Reichek, N., et al. \\\"Anatomic Validation of Left Ventricular Mass Estimates from Clinical Two-dimensional Echocardiography: Initial Results.\\\" Circulation, Vol. 67, No. 2: 348-52, February 1983",
