An acceptable method and equations for predicting the total heart volume from correlations to physiologic variables in young and middle-aged healthy persons are presented. Body weight gives more predictive information than body surface area. The use of the total hemoglobin mass and measures of physical work capacity as variables in addition to body weight will only increase the accuracy of the prediction relatively slightly.
