Abstract
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) has emerged as a crucial intervention for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) unsuitable for surgery. However, the complexity of pulmonary vasculature in CTEPH necessitates advanced imaging techniques for precise procedural diagnosis and planning. This review highlights the role of cone-beam CT pulmonary angiography (CBCT-PA) in enhancing the visualization and characterization of the pulmonary vasculature. Specific advantages over traditional imaging methods like digital subtraction angiography and CT pulmonary angiography are discussed. CBCT-PA provides detailed three-dimensional roadmaps, optimizing procedural parameters that can improve safety and efficacy. Despite these advantages, standardized protocols for CBCT-PA are lacking, underscoring the need for structured guidelines to fully integrate this technology into BPA programs for better clinical outcomes in CTEPH patients. © 2025
