Computed tomography-measured pulmonary artery to aorta ratio and EUTOS score for detecting dasatinib-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension

Background Periodic echo-based screening to detect early stages of a rare complication of dasatinib, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), is inefficient and weakens the potential benefit of dasatinib as a potent drug for chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). This study aimed to identify the predisposing factors of DASA-PAH to stratify high-risk patients for dasatinib-induced PAH (DASA-PAH).
