Diagnostic Accuracy of V/Q and Q SPECT/CT in Patients with Suspected Acute Pulmonary Embolism: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Thrombosis and Haemostasis"
DOI: 10.1055/a-1986-8878
Abstract: BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) pulmonary angiography has simplified the diagnostic approach to patients with clinically suspected acute pulmonary embolism (PE), but alternative imaging tests are still advocated. We aimed to systematically assess the diagnostic accuracy… read more here.
