Summary

This study looked at 112 people with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) to see if heart MRI scans can better measure how well the right side of the heart is working. Researchers compared MRI results with standard tests like heart catheterization. The goal was to improve how doctors predict patient outcomes, such as the need for a transplant or risk of death.
