epicardial adipose tissue thickness
I would rather not ignore the -saum part of the source term, but translate it as 'thickness'.
See how it fits in your context.
Epicardial adipose tissue thickness by echocardiography is a marker for the presence and severity of coronary artery disease.

For more contextually relevant googles:
"epicardial adipose tissue thickness" + "echocardiography"
