About

The goal of our study is to correlate data from non-invasive tests such as perfusion lung scans with hemodynamic measurements from right heart catherizations.

Full description

Data collected from PAH patients who have had non-invasive Ventilation/Perfusion testing, Echocardiography, Chest CT Scan, Pulmonary Function Testing and the correlation of those results to the hemodynamic parameters Right Heart Catherization results and the various biomarkers.
