Abstract

In normal conditions, impedance of the pulmonary circulation (PA-Zc) is one-third lower than the systemic circulation (Ao-Zc) with ventricular function coupled to the arterial circulation by relative matching between contractility and afterload. Simultaneous measurement of Ao-Zc and PA-Zc using a cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) technique has not previously been performed.
