| Popis: | PURPOSE: To compare patient outcomes following magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) versus computed tomographic angiography (CTA) ordered for suspected pulmonary embolism (PE). METHODS: In this IRB-approved, single-center, retrospective, case-control study, we reviewed the medical records of all patients evaluated for PE with MRA during a 5-year period along with age- and sex-matched controls evaluated with CTA. Only the first instance of PE evaluation during the study period was included. After application of our exclusion criteria to both study arms, the analysis included 1173 subjects. The primary endpoint was major adverse PE-related event (MAPE), which we defined as major bleeding, venous thromboembolism, or death during the 6 months following the index imaging test (MRA or CTA), obtained through medical record review. Logistic regression, Chi-square test for independence, and Fisher’s exact test were used with a p |
