Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Our primary endpoint will be a minimal clinically useful correlation of 0.6 or<br /><br>higher between right atrial pressure in mmHg measured directly during right<br /><br>heart catheterization, and indirectly assessed by MRI measurements of flow<br /><br>pattern and dimension changes of vena cava superior.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Secondary endpoints are defined as:<br /><br>i. A minimal clinically useful correlation of 0.6 or higher between pressures<br /><br>in mmHg, measured during right heart catheterization and MRI.<br /><br>ii. A minimal clinically useful correlation of 0.6 or higher between pressures<br /><br>in mmHg, measured during right heart catheterization and echocardiographic<br /><br>measurements of RAP (vena cava inferior). Additionally, echocardiographic<br /><br>measurement of vena jugularis interna flow will be included.<br /><br>iii. The association between measurements of echocardiography and MRI.</p><br>
