For unrepaired TOF physiology patients weighing more than 10 kg, CTA-acquired PVD are reliable and comparable with CCA except for DA for which ECHO is non-inferior. Non-invasive modalities though are inferior to CCA for LPA sizing. Utilizing derived equations, precise estimation of PVD can be carried out using non-invasive tools.
