Described are systems and methods for assessing a likelihood of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) within a subject patient based upon an analysis of characteristics indicative of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension within an imaging study of the subject patient. The systems and methods can identify characteristics of one or more anatomical structures within a cardiac region of the subject patient indicative of CTEPH, characteristics of a pulmonary vasculature of the subject patient indicative of CTEPH, and characteristics of a chronic abnormality in a lung of the subject patient indicative of CTEPH. The systems and methods can assess these characteristics to compute the likelihood of CTEPH within the subject patient.
