Thank you for informative comments.
Are the aneurysms you mention measured at their root?
I read on my echo aortic root diameter 3.5
And A O mean PG 4.3 ( mean aortic gradient)
Appreciate any info.

Hi Marta. The measurements are taken all along the length of the aorta and into the arch. For instance mine is shaped like a bubble. It is dilated in a few spots at different sizes. Each aneurysm can be shaped differently. Your cardiologist should be able to clarify this. Mine gave me drawings. I hope this helps.
