Venous duplex scanning for suspected deep vein thrombosis: results before and after elimination of after-hours studies.

abstract：PURPOSE:Catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) is a relatively new therapy for pulmonary embolism that achieves the superior clot resolution compared to systemic thrombolysis while avoiding the high bleeding risk intrinsically associated with that therapy. In order to examine the efficacy and safety of CDT, we conducted ...
