A member asked:

Small left sided heart with abnormal septal motion in ventricle ef 60-65% heart is normal including thickness. possible pulmonary hypertension cause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

MRI: If you have severe pulmonary hypertension, you may have Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. This is potentially a serious diagnosis. Intracardiac and intrapulmonary shunting must be ruled out. A cardiac MRI and nuclear shunt test can make this determination. These tests are likely only available at a major referral center - London. Good luck.
