Study Summary

The overall objective outlined in this study is to determine how pulmonary vascular remodeling in PAH at a cellular and pathological level is associated with changes in gas exchange physiology and hemodynamics (monitored with 129Xe MRI/MRS) and how these signals change with disease progression or treatment.

Primary Outcome

The study team will determine whether the correlation between Red Blood Cell Signal from Xenon MRI to pathologic scoring of pulmonary vascular remodeling from histopathology is statistically significant.
