Changes in Large Pulmonary Arterial Viscoelasticity in Chronic Pulmonary Hypertension

Conduit pulmonary artery (PA) stiffening is characteristic of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and is an excellent predictor of mortality due to right ventricular (RV) overload. To better understand the impact of conduit PA stiffening on RV afterload, it is critical to examine the arterial visc...
