Brief Summary:
This study is a effectiveness study of the application of high-definition enhanced computed-tomography for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension(CTEPH).The patients with CTEPH was randomized into 2 groups,precise pulmonary endarterectomy group(guided by enhanced CT scanning) and traditional pulmonary endarterectomy group,the hemodynamic changes tested with right sided heart catherization from baseline to post-operative period and end-point including peri-operative deaths,follow-up mortality,follow-up parameters of ultrasonic cardiogram(UCG),right-sided heart catherization(RHC),nuclear magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),cardiac pulmonary exercise test(CPET) are documented,so as to compare the prognosis between these 2 groups.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Precise
precise PEA therapy with the guide of 3-D imaging techniques
Diagnostic Test: 3-D CT scanning
For patients in Group 1,precisely analyzed CT scanning and/or pulmonary angiography will be done,and the patients in Group 1 will receive PEA procedure with the guide of precise 3-D imaging techniques

Placebo Comparator: Placebo
traditional PEA therapy solely by surgical probe and traditional CT scanning/pulmonary angiography method
Diagnostic Test: 3-D CT scanning
For patients in Group 1,precisely analyzed CT scanning and/or pulmonary angiography will be done,and the patients in Group 1 will receive PEA procedure with the guide of precise 3-D imaging techniques
