Understanding CTEPH Diagnostic & Interventional Techniques
Could persistent dyspnea after a “resolved” PE be more than just deconditioning or diastolic dysfunction? In this episode of BackTable Cardiology, Dr. Hady Lichaa hosts interventional cardiologist and vascular medicine specialist Dr. Vladimir Lakhter to discuss the diagnosis and management of CTEPH and chronic thromboembolic disease (CTED). They review the prevalence of CTEPH following pulmonary embolism, common delays in diagnosis, and why symptoms such as dyspnea are often misattributed to conditions like diastolic dysfunction.
