Novel Noninvasive Assessment of Pulmonary Arterial Stiffness Using Velocity Transfer Function

Novel Noninvasive Assessment of Pulmonary Arterial Stiffness Using Velocity Transfer Function

Background Pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness is associated with increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). PA stiffness is accurately described by invasive PA impedance because it considers pulsatile blood flow through elastic PAs. We hypothesized that PA stiffness and impedance could be evaluated...
