Abstract:

Right ventricular-pulmonary arterial coupling refers to the interaction and functional matching between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. When the coupling is disrupted, it can lead to a series of cardiovascular diseases, such as pulmonary hypertension, congenital heart disease, heart failure and so on. Therefore, it is important to evaluate cardiovascular structure and function. Cardiac magnetic resonance has the advantage of multi-parameter, multi-sequence, and high-resolution imaging, which can be used to comprehensively evaluate the cardiovascular system through cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking technology, cardiac magnetic resonance cine imaging technology, T1 mapping, and T2 mapping imaging, and so on. This review summarizes the application and research progress of cardiac magnetic resonance technology in the assessment of the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling.
