Dual- Energy CT Angiography for Assessment of Regional Pulmonary Perfusion in Patients With Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension: Initial Experience.

Abstract

This study assessed the utility of dual-energy pulmonary CT angiography (CTA) for noninvasive assessment of regional pulmonary perfusion in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Regional perfusion abnormalities were correlated with hemodynamic parameters and structural abnormalities on pulmonary CTA.
