Figure 2 Predicted Ascending and Descending Thoracic Aortic Diameter by Gender, Age, and BSA

(A) Nomogram of normal value of thoracic ascending aorta—female patients. (B) Nomogram of normal value of thoracic ascending aorta—male patients. (C) Nomogram of normal value of thoracic descending aorta—female patients. (D) Nomogram of normal value of thoracic descending aorta—male patients. The gold lines represent the estimated mean thoracic ascending aorta diameter. The orange lines represent the estimated 95% normal confidence upper and lower limits. BSA = body surface area; y/o = years of age.
