A member asked:
Had dvt before and had a another test last week which my d dimer result came back at 422 but scan of left leg was clear what does this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
D-dimer: D-Dimer is extremely sensitive but highly non-specific. In other words, it will be elevated in all cases of clot but in most instances, it's a false alarm. Your experience is typical.
