Pulmonary Vascular Disease Geometry

Effort let by Nick Rahaghi M.D. Ph.D. at Brigham and Women's Hospital leveraging imaging to study the geometry of the pulmonary circulation.

Very proud of the work in @CircImaging by @jasleenminhas to show that quantifying the loss of small vessel volume in pulmonary embolism can help predict right ventricular dysfunction and mortality! https://t.co/YRUkvzFw22

Old school physiology at it's best. #PVRI2020 @PVRI imaging task force pre-meeting. Illustration of the sheet model of capillaries.

@StGraef Just prune the vessels a bit...

Very proud of @syedmoinhassan presenting our findings of decreased distal vessel volume predicting oxygen requirements post acute pulmonary embolism. @accpchest #chest2019 #menteerockingit. the future is bright #pccm

On the way to give my first oral presentation @accpchest #CHEST2019. Excited, pumped up & anxious. @Eminem #loseyourself running on repeat in my mind. See you guys at "Assessment & Outcomes in Pulmonary Thromboembolism", Rm 386 tomorrow 2:30 pm @PVD_geometry. #medtwitter advice?

@wm_oldham @kurt_prins @ATS_PC @PVRI @3CPRCouncil @Viniciodjperez @docroham @JJRyanMD Yes. We don't use RHC as a routine monitoring tool- echo and ecercise testing tend to dominate until either something changes or we hit a wall where one wonders if the hemodynamics have fundamentally changed (ie wedge is now high) .

@ATS_PC @ATS_RSF @AnFrumpIU @ATS_Assemblies Honored to have our work discussed in Journal Club and in the company of such great topics! Look forward to the discussion.
