Is d-dimer level associated with the extent of pulmonary embolism?
We have shown that the level of D-dimer is related to the severity of PE assessed by various radiological, biochemical and clinical markers and might have a potential value as prognostic marker for the severity of PE.
The demonstrated association between anatomic tumor complexity at presentation and renal masses of LGR of clinical stage 1 under AS may afford a clinically useful cue to tailor individual patient radiographic surveillance schedules and warrants further evaluation.
