1 Echocardiography underestimates the aortic root diameter in patients with bicuspid aortic valve, but short-axis imaging can help  Hector I. Michelena, MD, Thomas A. Foley, MD, Maurice Enriquez-Sarano, MD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 157, Issue 3, Pages e121-e123 (March 2019) DOI: /j.jtcvs Copyright © 2018 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 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).
