Validity of algorithm for estimating left sided filling pressures on echocardiography in a population referred for pulmonary arterial hypertension

The determination of LV filling pressure is integral to the diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) has devised algorithms for their estimation. We aimed to test these algorithms in a population referred for suspected PAH. In our retrospecti...
