Left ventricular mass and systolic function in children with chronic kidney disease-comparing echocardiography with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Echo overestimates LVM compared to CMR, especially at higher LVM. Despite this, CMR confirms increased LVM in children with CKD. Only CMR-LVMI but not Echo-LVMI correlated to future GFR decline.
