Right and left ventricular blood pool T2 ratio on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging correlates with hemodynamics in patients with pulmonary hypertension
Abstract:Objectives
Our objective is to compare the right/left ventricular blood pool T1 ratio (RVT1/LVT1), and right/left ventricular blood pool T2 ratio (RVT2/LVT2) on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMR) between patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) and normal controls, to analyze the correlation of RVT1/LVT1, RVT2/LVT2 and hemodynamics measured with right heart catheterization (RHC) in patients with PH.
Methods
Forty two patients with PH and 40… Show more
