A pulmonary embolism (PE) is a life-threatening blockage in a lung artery that strains the lungs and the right side of the heart, among other symptoms.
Pulmonary hypertension is a condition in which pulmonary arteries constrict, leading to higher blood pressure. If left untreated, it can lead to heart failure.
When blood clots form within blood vessels they can obstruct blood flow, which can cause blockages affecting the heart, lungs and other organs.
Pulmonary edema is a condition in which fluid buildup in the lungs makes it hard to breathe.
In this routine test, a physician slips a flexible device called a bronchoscope through your nose or mouth, down your throat and into your lungs.
When we’re healthy, blood flows freely through our bodies. When blood flow is restricted, we have high blood pressure (also called hypertension).
