Subject:read the size fo blob without extracting data

Is there a key word to use in a select query, that can read the size of a blob field?

If a string or a binary is stored into a blob I need to know how many kb are stored.

The scope is to show how many kb a document is big without retrieving for instance 400kb for nothing

for instance: Show the attach for this offer (34kb)
