1 Echocardiography Versus Right-Sided Heart Catheterization Among Lung Transplantation Candidates 
Itsik Ben-Dor, MD, Mordechai R. Kramer, MD, Avraham Raccah, MD, Zaza Iakobishvilli, MD, David Shitrit, MD, Gideon Sahar, MD, David Hasdai, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 81, Issue 3, Pages (March 2006) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 The correlation between PASP estimated by TTE and measured by RHC based on the different etiologies of lung disease. (PASP = pulmonary artery systolic pressure; RHC = right heart catheterization; TTE = transthoracic echocardiography.)

3 Fig 2 Mean (±) PASP in the sub-groups according to etiology of lung disease and modality of measurement. (PASP = pulmonary artery systolic pressure; RHC = right heart catheterization; TTE = transthoracic echocardiography.)

4 Fig 3 The correlation between PASP measured intraoperatively and previously measured by RHC. (PASP = pulmonary artery systolic pressure; RHC = right heart catheterization.)
