Prognostic value of imaging methods in acute pulmonary embolism Valor prognóstico dos métodos de imagem na embolia pulmonar aguda
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third most common cause of acute cardiovascular disease after myocardial infarction and stroke. Prompt diagnosis, risk stratification and treatment of patients with PE can reduce the associated mortality. Developments in imaging technology in recent years have led to changes in approaches to PE, one of the most significant being the replacement of conventional pul...

It is rarely seen in conjunction with lung neoplasms. We report the case of a 39-year-old female patient diagnosed with a carcinoid tumor, located in the intermediate bronchus and accompanied by bronchiectasis in the right lower lobe. The patient un...

The clinical signs and symptoms are nonspecific, often mimicking chronic pulmonary thromboembolism (CPTE). We report the case of a 45-year-old male under treatment for CPTE associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic cor pulmonale....

Pulmonary thromboembolism is a common condition. Its diagnosis usually requires pulmonary scintigraphy, computed angiotomography, pulmonary arteriography and, in order to rule out other diagnoses, the measurement of D-dimer levels. Due to the fact that these diagnostic methods are not available in most Brazilian hospitals, the validation of other diagnostic techniques is of fundamental importan...
