Echocardiographic measurements of aortic root diameter (ARD) in collegiate football Athletes at pre-participation evaluation

Abstract: BackgroundSome remodelling of the aortic root may be expected to occur with exercise but can already vary due to different body sizes, compositions and genetic predispositions. Attributing the cause of borderline aortic root diameter (ARD) values to either physiological or pathological conditions in American college football athletes is difficult as there is very limited normal reference values in this population.
