Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a potentially fatal disease if the diagnosis or treatment is delayed. Currently, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is considered the standard imaging method for diagnosing PE. Dual-energy CT (DECT) has the advantages of MDCT and can provide functional information for patients with PE. The aim of this review is to present the potential clinical applications of DECT in PE, focusing on the diagnosis and risk stratification of PE.
肺栓塞(PE)是一种潜在的致命性疾病,如果诊断或治疗延误。目前,多排螺旋 CT(MDCT)被认为是诊断 PE 的标准影像学方法。双能量 CT(DECT)具有 MDCT 的优点,并可为 PE 患者提供功能信息。本文旨在介绍 DECT 在 PE 中的潜在临床应用,重点介绍 DECT 在 PE 的诊断和危险分层中的应用。
