I agree. I had CT Angiogram Coronary with contrast for screening as first test where they detected 4.5cm ascending Aortic Aneurysm. Then they did ECO Cardiogram to check for Bicuspid valve and that show 4.2CM but my Cardiologist say, CT is the gold standard and accurate.
They can’t find conclusive that if I have bicuspid valve so they also did TEE procedure and confirmed that I do have bicuspid valve and that diameter for Aorta is 4.5cm.

Well at least you've talked to a Cardiologist
all I'm getting is Veteran nurses on results and tests
So I guess I talk to a Cardiologist surgeon when it gets 5.5
they make me a bit nervous , but it is the army , whatever armed forces hospital
