Diagnostic yield of CT pulmonary angiography in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism: A single center experience

The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical application of computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) based on a single-center experience. Medical records and radiological reports of 450 patients (272 men and 178 women; mean age...
