Transthoracic Sonography in Comparison to Multislice Computed Tomography in Detection of Peripheral Pulmonary Embolism
Lung, 11/25/09
Pfeil A et al. – The study revealed that PE is often associated with peripheral parenchymal changes, both of which are detectable by TS and MSCT. In case of contraindication with MSCT, TS is a potential technique for diagnosing PE–related parenchymal findings and can serve as an alternative method in the diagnosis of PE. However, a negative result with TS does not rule out a PE.
