[Left ventricular volume measurement. A simple and precise method for calculating the enlargement factor (author's transl)].
A new method is proposed for calculating the enlargement factor in order to measure left ventricular volume. It is based on the grid method of Kasser and Kennedy, modified and simplified by making use of the technical possibilities of their apparatus. The enlargement factor is measured from a graduated scale and reference to a pre-established graph.
