Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Must be already scheduled for left and/or right heart catheterization for clinical reasons.
* Must be in sinus rhythm, without an arrhythmia likely to affect the ability to assess pulmonary hemodynamics by catheterization, as determined by the investigator.
* Women of childbearing potential must be using adequate birth control and have a negative pregnancy test.

Exclusion Criteria

* History of right-to-left, bi-directional, or transient right-to-left cardiac shunts or diagnosed by color flow Doppler echocardiography during screening.
* Hypersensitivity to Optison, perflutren, blood, blood products, or albumin.
* Female subjects who are nursing mothers.
