Figure 1 Schematic illustration of the aortic measure points: 1 = annulus; 2 = sinus of Valsalva; 3 = sinotubular junction; 4 = ascending aorta (ie, maximal aortic width distal to the sinotubular junction and proximal to the innominate artery); 5 = proximal aortic arch (ie, maximal aortic width distal to the innominate artery and proximal to the left common carotid artery); 6 = distal aortic arch (ie, maximal aortic width distal to the left common carotid artery and proximal to the left subclavian artery); 7 = aortic isthmus; 8 = descending aorta (ie, maximal aortic width distal to the aortic isthmus and proximal to the diaphragm); 9 = suprarenal aorta (ie, maximal aortic width distal to the coeliac trunk and proximal to the superior mesenteric artery); 10 = infrarenal aorta (ie, maximal aortic width distal to the most caudal renal artery).
