Abstract | PURPOSE: To apply different methods of diagnostic test accuracy network meta-analysis (DTA-NMA) in studies reporting results of five imaging tests for the diagnosis of suspected pulmonary embolism (PE): pulmonary angiography (PA), computed tomography angiography (CTPA), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), planar ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) scintigraphy and single photon emission computed tomography ventilation/perfusion (SPECT V/Q). |
