We have previously demonstrated that a clinical model can be safely used in a management
strategy in patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE). We sought to simplify the …

Major pulmonary embolism (PE) results whenever the combination of embolism size and
underlying cardiopulmonary status interact to produce hemodynamic instability. Physical …

Background Patients with cancer have a substantial risk of recurrent thrombosis despite the
use of oral anticoagulant therapy. We compared the efficacy of a low-molecular-weight …

Background: The limitations of the current diagnostic standard, ventilation-perfusion lung
scanning, complicate the management of patients with suspected pulmonary embolism. We …

OBJECTIVE. This study was designed to define and evaluate a specific index to quantify
arterial obstruction with helical CT in acute pulmonary embolism. MATERIALS AND …

Recently, more and more attention is drawn to the field of medical image synthesis across
modalities. Among them, the synthesis of computed tomography (CT) image from T1 …

Background Prophylaxis against deep-vein thrombosis in hospitalized patients remains
underused. We hypothesized that the use of a computer-alert program to encourage …

Computed tomography (CT) has had a profound effect on the practice of medicine. Both the
spectrum of clinical applications and the role that CT has played in enhancing the depth of …

Background We designed a simple and integrated diagnostic algorithm for acute venous
thromboembolism based on clinical probability assessment of deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the imaging performance characteristics of four multidetector-row
helical computed tomography (CT) and assess improvement in volume coverage speed …
