Calculate BSA-adjusted z-scores of common valvular and arterial dimensions, such as the aortic and mitral valves, aorta and aortic arch, and pulmonary arteries.

The primary aim of this investigation was to establish pediatric nomograms for two-dimensional (2D) echocardiographic valvular and arterial measurements derived from a wide population of healthy neonates, infants and children.
