Popis:	Background: Few studies have addressed the value of combining computed tomography-derived pulmonary vasculature metrics for the diagnosis and haemodynamic evaluation of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Materials and methods: We measured three computed tomography parameters for the pulmonary artery, peripheral vessels, and pulmonary veins: the ratio of the diameter of the pulmonary artery to the aorta (PA/Ao), the cross-sectional area of small pulmonary vessels
