Combined automated 3D volumetry by pulmonary CT angiography and echocardiography for detection of pulmonary hypertension.

• This diagnostic accuracy study derived a regression model for noninvasive prediction of invasively measured mean pulmonary arterial pressure as assessed by gold standard right heart catheterisation. • This regression model using automated 3D volumetry of the central pulmonary arteries based on CT pulmonary angiography in conjunction with the echocardiographic pressure estimate predicted pulmonary arterial pressure and the presence of pulmonary hypertension with good diagnostic accuracy. • The combination of automated 3D volumetry and echocardiographic pressure estimate in the regression model provided superior diagnostic accuracy compared to each parameter alone.
