Figure 2 Bland–Altman plots illustrating the BVI measurement bias where aortic diameters were consistently under-measured, with increasing variability as aortic diameter increased. The dotted red lines demarcate the limits of agreement (mean difference ± 1.96 × SD), the horizontal line is drawn at the mean difference and the variability is indicated as the distance between the horizontal line and each of the dotted red line.
