ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Pulmonary embolism [PE] is a common lethal disease that its clinical symptoms may be seen in many other diseases. Computed tomography pulmonary angiography [CTPA] is a valuable diagnostic modality for detection of PE. In addition, it can accurately detect the other diseases with clinical symptoms similar to PE. The aim of this study is to evaluate the frequency of PE and nonembolic disease with similar clinical symptoms including pulmonary, pleural, mediastinal, and cardiovascular diseases that have been detected by CTPA and to describe the importance of reporting these CTfindings:
