Quantitative Dual Energy Computed Tomography in Pulmonary Hypertension

The procedure involves post processing and analysis of reconstructed images from dual energy CT scans available at the Bordeaux University Hospital and used in routine care, which will allow us to collect morphometric data (bronchial wall thickness and cross sectional area of small pulmonary vessels) and to assess pulmonary perfusion by studying iodine mapping and quantifying pulmonary perfusion blood volume (PVB)
