Background: Quantitative measurement of circulating D‐dimer, a product of fibrin
degradation, has been shown to be a very useful diagnostic tool in the management of …

Background and Purpose—Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an infrequent variety of
cerebrovascular disease with a wide spectrum of clinical presentations and a notoriously …

Background Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a disease with a wide spectrum of

Background Patients with isolated headache may have cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT).
D-dimers are proven sensitive in excluding deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary …

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The potential utility of D-dimer measurements for the
diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis became evident soon after the development of reliable …

D‐dimer (DD) is a fibrin degradation product present in negligible amounts in healthy
individuals, but in thrombotic/fibrinolytic conditions substantially increases in plasma. Over …

This paper reviews the published experience with plasma measurement of D-dimer (DD), a
specific degradation product of crosslinked fibrin, in the diagnostic approach of venous …

OBJECTIVES: Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a disease with varying clinical
presentation and diagnosis presents many challenges in clinical practice. We investigated …

ABSTRACT D-dimer, the final degradation product of cross-linked fibrin, is typically elevated
in patients with acute venous thromboembolism. With its high sensitivity and negative …

Results Patients were considered DVT positive if one of the following occurred:(i) absence of
compressibility of the common femoral and/or popliteal veins on CUS at presentation or 5±7 …
