Why the study?
Does magnetic resonance imaging improve the quantitation of right ventricular volume in patients with pulmonary hypertension?
Does magnetic resonance imaging improve the quantitation of right ventricular volume in patients with pulmonary hypertension?
Magnetic resonance imaging provides a non-invasive method to directly quantify right ventricular volume without relying on geometric modeling assumptions, avoiding the risks of conventional contrast ventriculography.
