A Comparison of SPECT Lung Scintigraphy and CTPA For the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism
Chest, 10/15/09
Miles S et al. – This study indicates that SPECT V/Q scintigraphy is a viable alternative to CTPA for the diagnosis of PE, and has potential advantages in that it was feasible in more patients, had fewer contraindications, lower radiation dose and, arguably, fewer nondiagnostic findings compared to CTPA.
