摘要

knowledge of the structure and function of pulmonary circulation has evolved considerably in the last few decades. the use of non-invasive imaging techniques to assess the anatomy and function of the pulmonary vessels and heart has taken on added importance with the recent advent of novel therapies. imaging findings not only constitute a diagnostic tool but have also proven to be essential for prognosis and treatment follow-up. this article reviews the myriad of imaging methods currently available for the assessment of pulmonary circulation, from the simple chest x-ray to techniques that are more complex and promising, such as electrical impedance tomography
