Abstract

Cardiac comorbidity is one of the most important prognostic factors in lung disease, especially in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The imaging techniques available for the study of this systemic manifestation concomitant with COPD include heart catheterization, transthoracic echocardiography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) represents a significant advance in this field because it enables the acquisition of simultaneous studies of the cardiopulmonary anatomy that go beyond anatomic and morphologic analysis to include a functional approach to this condition. In this article, we review the practical aspects necessary to evaluate cardiac comorbidity in patients with COPD, both from the point of view of pulmonary hypertension and of the analysis of ventricular dysfunction and coronary heart disease.

Resumen

La comorbilidad cardíaca es uno de los factores pronósticos más importantes en las enfermedades pulmonares, particularmente en la enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC). Entre las distintas técnicas de imagen disponibles para estudiar dicha manifestación sistémica concomitante a la EPOC se incluyen el cateterismo cardíaco, la ecocardiografía transtorácica y la resonancia magnética. La tomografía computarizada multidetector (TCMD) ha supuesto un progreso significativo en este campo, al permitir obtener estudios simultáneos de la anatomía cardiopulmonar que van más allá del análisis anatómico-morfológico e incluyen una aproximación funcional a dicha afectación. En este trabajo se repasan aspectos prácticos necesarios para valorar la comorbilidad cardíaca en pacientes con EPOC, tanto desde el punto de vista de la hipertensión pulmonar, como del análisis de la disfunción ventricular y de la enfermedad coronaria.
