The conclusions drawn from ventilation/perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) compared to lung perfusion SPECT and a chest x-ray (CXR) in patients with suspected pulmonary pulmonary thromboembolism

Purpose: There are conflicting results from studies on whether the ventilation (V) scintigraphy can be safely omitted or replaced by a chest x-ray. These studies were based on planar ventilation perfusion (V/Q) scintigraphy. We evaluated the value of the V single photon emission computed tomography...
