BSA and weight-adjusted z-scores of M-mode measurements of the left ventricle, right ventricle, and left atrial diameters (table data adapted to calculate z-scores).

the presented charts and tables make it possible to judge echocardiographic measurements of a particular patient as normal or abnormal.
