Impact of unsuspected subsegmental pulmonary embolism in ICU patients

Critically ill patients in intensive-care units are at high risk for pulmonary embolism (PE). As a result of modern multi-detector computed tomographic angiography (MDCT) increased visualization of peripheral pulmonary arteries, isolated subsegmental pulmonary embolisms (ISSPE) are increasingly bein...

Summary:Critically ill patients in intensive-care units are at high risk for pulmonary embolism (PE). As a result of modern multi-detector computed tomographic angiography (MDCT) increased visualization of peripheral pulmonary arteries, isolated subsegmental pulmonary embolisms (ISSPE) are increasingly being detected.
