Has anyone heard of a geometric CV (co-efficient of variation). I know what a geometric mean and SD are.

I have some test data and it appears that the geometric CV is the SD of log-transformed data (without anti-logging again). This is then multiplied by 100 to convert to a percentage.

Is this correct???
