Figure 1From: Right ventricular adaptation to pulmonary pressure load in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension before and after successful pulmonary endarterectomy - a cardiovascular magnetic resonance studyChange of pulmonary arterial load, RV contractile state and ventriculo-arterial coupling. Because arterial load decreases post-PEA, ventriculo-arterial coupling is restored despite a continuously depressed contractile state.Back to article page
