MRI and CT perfusionscanning were performed after embolization.
2
Our data indicate that accurate diagnosis of pulmonary embolism is possible by perfusionscanning alone, without ventilation imaging.
3
Combining perfusionscanning with clinical assessment helps to restrict the need for angiography to a minority of patients with suspected pulmonary embolism.
4
With knowledge of the normal findings by perfusionscanning, an alternative diagnosis was established in 367 of the 515 patients.
5
Perfusionscanning with 99mTc-Sestamibi may be useful in the diagnosis of acute rejection in cardiac transplant recipients.
