Point-of-care transthoracic echocardiography [PDF]

Clinical Medicine, 2021
Editor – The point is well made that increased use of computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in patients with low pretest probability of pulmonary embolism (PE) might pose unnecessary risk of harm to patients, and might also be an inappropriate use of scarce resources.
