pubmed:abstractText |
Measurements of pulmonary pressure and resistance are still considered to be the "gold standard" in the evaluation of pulmonary hypertension (PH), despite their limitations in predicting irreversible disease. Hemodynamic assessment also only provides a global evaluation of the pulmonary vascular bed, whereas PH is an inhomogeneous disease of the vessel wall.
