Such diagnoses are never 100% sure.
We can do nothing at this stage of pregnancy.
You will have to get an ultrasound scan done many times during the remaining 5 months of your pregnancy.
Please ask for the diameter of the aorta and Pulmonary artery in the subsequent scans. The report may be normal.
Please tell your Paediatrician about this finding when your baby is born.

Dimensions of pulmonary artery and aorta in fetus varies as per gestation age. To rule out any anomaly in heart you should get an echo done
