MRI evaluation of right and left ventricular remodeling and surrogate markers of PH following acute pulmonary embolism

It is difficult to identify patients at risk for chronic-thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) in the clinical course of pulmonary embolism (PE). We evaluated ventricular remodeling and markers of pulmonary hypertension (PH) using cardiac MRI in PE patients after 6 months treatment.
