Figure 1 Two patients with BAV with root less than 45 mm by conventional TTE method and greater than 45 mm by TTE mid-diastolic short-axis method. Patient 1: Parasternal long-axis sinuses measurement (A) and parasternal short-axis sinuses measurement, largest diameter from right-to-noncoronary sinus (B). Patient 2: Parasternal long-axis sinuses measurement (C) and parasternal short-axis sinuses measurement, largest diameter from right-to-left coronary sinus (D).
