Indexed diameter of pulmonary annulus (iPAnn), indexed right pulmonary artery (iRPA), indexed left pulmonary artery (iLPA) and indexed descending aorta (iDA) were measured using ECHO and CTA followed by derivation of Nakata index (NI), McGoon\u2019s ratio (MGR), ratio of predicted peak right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) pressures (pRV\/pLV) and Z-scores. Comparison with CCA-derived measurements was made and correlational equations were subsequently deduced. Pulmonary vascular dimensions for 54 patients with mean age of 15.5 \u00b1 9.3 years (range: 3\u201334 years) were analysed. Computed tomography angiography and CCA measurements for iPAnn, iRPA, NI, MGR, pRV\/pLV, and Z-score were comparable with each other while ECHO parameters were significantly lower than CCA. However, iLPA diameter was significantly underestimated by ECHO and overestimated by CTA. Correlational analysis showed stronger correlation between CTA- and CCA-derived PVD as against ECHO measurements except for iDA, pRV\/pLV, and Z-score.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>For unrepaired TOF physiology patients weighing more than 10 kg, CTA-acquired PVD are reliable and comparable with CCA except for DA for which ECHO is non-inferior.

tools.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/ehjci\/jeac078","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,14]],"date-time":"2022-04-14T11:08:43Z","timestamp":1649934523000},"page":"383-391","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Comparison
