Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The following primary endpoints will be assessed: Primary aim is to confirm that PH occurs in patients receiving thoracic radiotherapy and assess incidence and time course. Therefore we decided to use high-risk pulmonary hypertension as assessed by echocardiography at one year after radiotherapy as primary endpoint. Following the ECS/ERS guidelines (25), a patient is classified as high risk of PH when meeting one of the following criteria: - tricuspid valve Doppler velocity 2.9-3.4m/s with other signs of PH (see below) - tricuspid valve Doppler velocity >3.4m/s Other signs of PH are: - Pulmonary artery acceleration time (2.2 m/s) - Doppler notching of right ventricular outflow tract signal (y) - Inferior Caval Vein collapsibility (>21 mm and 1.1 in systole) - RV dilatation (RVEDV>45mm)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The following secondary endpoints will be assessed: - Intermediate risk of PH: o tricuspid valve Doppler velocity
