About Video

This video clip treadmill exercise echocardiogram demonstrating dynamic pulmonary hypertension. The resting study is on the left that shows normal right ventricular size and function. The postexercise images on the right show right ventricular dilatation and compression of the left ventricular cavity with paradoxical septal motion. The abnormal septal motion is due to right ventricular pressure overload and not due to ischemia.
