Researchers want to understand how chronic lung diseases affect your heart and whether the treatments used for lung disease actually help or harm your heart function. You'll have special heart imaging scans (called cardiac MRI) and heart ultrasounds before and 3–6 months after you start treatment for your lung condition. These scans show detailed pictures of how your heart is working.
Doctors know that lung disease and heart disease are connected, but they don't fully understand how the treatments used for lung conditions affect the heart. This study will help doctors choose the safest and best treatments by showing exactly what happens to your heart when you're treated for your lung disease.

You'll come to the hospital or imaging center for heart scans before you start your new lung treatment. First, you'll have a cardiac MRI (a detailed magnetic imaging scan of your heart) and a heart ultrasound. Then, you'll start your prescribed lung treatment as usual. About 3 to 6 months later, you'll return for the same heart scans again so doctors can see if the treatment affected your heart.
