CTA Scan w/ contrast Test Results:
Sinus of Valsalva = 4cm
Sinotubular junction = 3.33cm
Proximal Ascending = 3.3cm
Proximal arch = 3.1cm


Got a CTA Scan and it showed a 4cm aortic root. Test result said "no aneurysms and normal", but cardiologist seems slightly worried and is putting me on a beta blocker and restricted lifting. Couple questions.

I'm a 36 male at 6' / 200lbs and have slightly high blood pressure.

- Is this condition normal?
- What is restricted lifting? I normally lift 4x a week heavy (squats, dead lifts, bench).
- Should I be worried?

Thanks!
