Pulmonary Vascular Impairment in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Assessed by MRI

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a highly prevalent pulmonary disease providing major morbidity and mortality. Bronchial obstruction is the cornerstone in assessment of the disease whereas associated pulmonary vascular disease remains poorly known. Improving knowledge on pulmonary vascular adaptive skills in COPD patients could allow for better understanding disease exacerbations, evolution towards chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH) and therapeutics to be offered to the patients. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an innovative and non-invasive tool capable of pulmonary vascular evaluation. This work aims at identifying pulmonary vascular impairment in COPD patients using functional MRI.
