Abstract
PURPOSE: Pulmonary embolism is a major cause of maternal mortality. The use of multidetector row CT pulmonary angiogram (MDCTPA) has been increasing in the general population and in pregnancy. However, the use of CT has not been validated in pregnancy and its accuracy is questioned especially that some of the physiologic changes associated with pregnancy may affect technical adequacy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of MDCTPA in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism in pregnancy.
