| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cardiac function and interventricular dyssynchrony in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension were evaluated before and after balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) using cardiac MRI, and compared to the parameters derived from cardiac catheterization, laboratory test, and 6-minute walk test. The decrease in right ventricular volume was correlated with the decrease in pulmonary artery pressure. The possibility of MRI for non-invasive assessment of pulmonary hypertension was shown. The improvement of interventricular dyssynchrony was correlated with the increase of stroke volume. Not only right ventricle but also left ventricle were improved by BPA and the mechanism was revealed.
