2011 to 2012 has seen an explosion in published research in the field of pulmonary vascular disease, especially pulmonary hypertension. In conjunction with this research has been an explosion in clinical interest in treating pulmonary hypertension. This is possible because we now have three different generic classes of drug therapy: endothelin receptor
