摘要：
Determining the presence or absence of thromboembolic disease can often be problematic. Traditional diagnostic algorithms are reviewed and discussed. Spiral CT technology allows a relatively noninvasive visualization of the pulmonary vasculature and is a promising new diagnostic modality for acute and chronic thromboembolic disease. Its potential roles are discussed, and a new diagnostic algorithm is proposed.
