Abstract
Overutilization of computed tomography (CT) is a growing concern in emergency medicine, particularly in patients with cancer. While previous studies have attempted to characterize the rates of CT use in this population, there are little data available about the comparative yield of this modality compared to conventional radiography (x-ray) and how it affects clinical decision-making. Our aim was to determine whether CT imaging of the chest more frequently identified clinically significant results as compared to chest radiography (CXR) in patients with cancer.
