Abstract
Right heart failure (RHF) in pulmonary hypertension (PH) patients is manifested by increased right atrial (RA) pressure. We hypothesized liver relaxation times measured at cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) can be used to noninvasively assess increased right-sided filling pressure.Forty-five consecutive patients, that is, 37 PH patients and 8 chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease patients without PH underwent right heart catheterization...
