Brief Summary: In this study hyperpolarized 129Xe MRI will be used to evaluate treatment efficacy in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension PAH Participants will be imaged at 4 timepoints baseline 6 weeks post-therapy initiation 12 weeks and 18 weeks Images will be analyzed to develop new biomarkers and to understand treatment effects
Detailed Description: 1 Optimize Xe-MRI Oscillation Imaging for PAH Regional mapping of oscillations in the xenon RBC signal is a new technique that may provide new insights into microvascular function in PH Recent innovations in Xe-MRI have enabled improvements to this methodology but these have yet to be explored and optimized
2 Quantify the short- and long-term repeatability of Xe-MRI oscillation imaging in patients with PAH Hyperpolarized 129Xe oscillation imaging is a novel technique that may provide regional quantification of pulmonary microvascular function However the repeatability of this technique has not been measured which limits its use as an outcome measure
3 Determine the minimum time-point at which Xe-MRI shows a clinically meaningful change following treatment Current standards in the PAH community are to assess treatment efficacy in PAH patients at 3-6 months using 6MWTs REVEAL Lite scores echocardiograms and possibly RHCs However Xe-MRI may be more sensitive to functional improvements We hypothesize that Xe-MRI biomarkers will show a clinically meaningful change within 12 weeks of initiation of pulmonary vasodilators
