Expert Diagnosis and Management of Blood Clots in the Lungs
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a serious condition caused by a blood clot blocking one or more arteries in the lungs. It requires prompt diagnosis and treatment, as early intervention can be lifesaving and prevent long-term complications.
Common Symptoms
Diagnosis & Treatment
Diagnosis may include CT Pulmonary Angiography (CTPA), D-dimer testing, ECG, echocardiography, and ultrasound of the legs. Treatment depends on the severity and may involve blood thinners (anticoagulants), thrombolytic therapy (clot-busting medications), oxygen therapy, intensive care monitoring, or catheter-based and surgical interventions in selected cases.
