(CT) angiography in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) has dramatically increased
as a consequence of major advances in CT technology. The question now no longer …

Background: Spiral computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a potentially conclusive
diagnostic test to exclude pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with non-high probability …

PURPOSE: To determine whether a helical computed tomographic (CT) scan that is
negative for pulmonary embolism (PE) is a sufficiently reliable criterion to safely withhold …

This study examines the anatomic distribution of emboli on pulmonary angiography and
attempts to determine the relationship of vessel size to interobserver agreement, two factors …

Purpose: The goal of this work was to identify and categorize the spectrum of pulmonary
parenchymal and pleural abnormalities identified by CT in patients with acute pulmonary …

PURPOSE: To investigate if abnormal early contrast enhancement of the aorta and
decreased attenuation of pulmonary arteries at deep-inspiration spiral computed …

Background: Helical computed tomography (CT) is a readily available tool for diagnosing
pulmonary embolism (PE); however, its role in the management of patients with clinically …

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the severity of acute pulmonary
embolism (PE) could be quantitatively assessed with spiral CT angiography (SCTA). Thirty …

The introduction of spiral CT has recently modified the diagnostic work-up of pulmonary
embolism, because it is possible to depict noninvasively endoluminal clots in second-to …

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common condition with considerable morbidity and mortality
