Abstract
In all patients with intermediate to high-risk probability MDCT pulmonary angiography is the most accurate test to diagnose PE and should be performed at the earliest. The combination of 2-dimensional ECHO and d-dimer can be used in patients with a high clinical suspicion of PE on pre-test probability where MDCT pulmonary angiography is not possible.
