Improved Interpretation of Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressures through Left Atrial Volumetry—A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Improved Interpretation of Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressures through Left Atrial Volumetry—A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study

Background: The pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) is regarded as a reliable indicator of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), but this association is weaker in patients with left-sided heart disease (LHD). We compared morphological differences in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (...
