Cardiac geometry, as assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance, can differentiate subtypes of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary vascular disease

BACKGROUND: Ventricular septal flattening reflects RV pressure overload in pulmonary arterial hypertension. Eccentricity index (EI) and pulmonary artery distensibility (PAD) correlate with pulmonary artery pressure. We assessed the utility of these using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) to assess fo...
