Prediction of pulmonary artery sling in children using echocardiography: scoring based on pulmonary artery bifurcation and pulmonary valve ring distance
The pivotal element in echocardiography diagnosis of PAS is the identification of the spatial relationship between the left pulmonary artery (LPA) and the trachea. The use of quantitative indices such as DBP and DBP/BSA for adjunctive diagnosis can positively impact the early detection of PAS.
