Overview

The management of patients with pulmonary embolism remains a challenge for attending physicians and calls for competent and prompt decision-making. This CD-ROM serves as an interactive teaching tool. Using eight case samples and with the help of a proven scheme, it documents in a step-by-step manner the optimum procedure - from the (suspected) diagnosis to effective fibrinolysis therapy. A number of examination images (x-ray, CT, scintigraphy, echocardiography, angiography) and twenty video sequences illustrate the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, accurately and vividly reflecting clinical reality.
