Abstract

PURPOSE: Multidetector CT scan (CTPA) has significantly improved the detection of subsegmental pulmonary emboli (SSPE). In the absence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT), the significance of SSPE and the need for treatment has been questioned. We retrospectively determined if clinicians treated SSPE and report on the frequency of treatment complicatons.
