Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

Blood Vessels & Circulation
Chest

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension develops when blood clots in the lungs do not fully resolve, causing the pressure in the pulmonary arteries to gradually rise. It can develop silently over months to years. An MRI may show changes in pulmonary vessels and the right side of the heart consistent with elevated pressure. Finding this condition early may allow for surgical or catheter-based treatment before right heart failure develops.

SCReening explained
It’s important to understand that OneMRI's full-body scan is a general proactive health scan developed to include areas where preventative screening delivers the most meaningful insight in a way that is safe and non-invasive. The scan should be used to compliment other routine scans and screening. It should not replace standard screening protocols or targeted procedures as recommended by your doctor, specialist or health provider. Examples of these include mammogram, prostate examination, cervical screening, colonoscopy, and lung cancer screening.
