Gautier et al., Am J Cardiol 2010

Linear regression statistics were applied to determine the correlations among the logarithmic transformed values of the 4 aortic root diameters, morphologic parameters, and age.

normative data for the aortic root ... in children should be useful for diagnosis and follow-up of various aneurismal pathologic disorders

(Note that vessel diameters are measured in diastole.)
