Performance of pulmonary artery dimensions measured on high-resolution computed tomography scan for identifying pulmonary hypertension

Background On high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), pulmonary artery (PA) dimensions may hint at the presence of pulmonary hypertension. We aimed to determine how accurately various measures of the PA, as viewed on HRCT, predict right heart catheterisation (RHC)-confirmed pulmonary hypertensio...
