摘要：
Perhaps the greatest threat to patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) is failure to be diagnosed. Correct decision regarding therapy can be made only after a correct diagnosis. The physician must know: (1) what is the natural course of events without treatment, (2) how are these events improved by therapy, and (3) to which extent are these improvements mitigated by adverse effects of this therapy.
