Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) may be suspected based on the clinical
history, physical examination and electrocardiogram findings but imaging is
usually central to confirming the diagnosis, establishing a cause and guiding
therapy. The diagnostic pathway of PAH involves a variety of complimentary
investigations of which computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) has
established a central role both in helping identify an underlying cause for PAH
and assessing resulting functional compromise. In particular CTPA is considered
as the gold standard technique for the diagnosis of thromboembolic disease. This
article reviews the CTPA evaluation in PAH, describing CTPA techniques, a
systematic approach to interpretation and spectrum of key imaging findings.
