Mgt: There are false positives associated with the D Dimer test, but the CT is reassuring. The scan on Monday will help your physicians determine whether you need further anti-coagulation.

Elevated d dimer neg ct svan and leg doppler clot ruled out?? Still worried
D dimer .63, negative ultrasound of leg. Please explain WHY the test is elevated with NO other reasons for elevation. Should I ask for CT scan?
Went to ER for chest pain. Ddimer was elevated. CT of chest ruled out blood clot. Didn't scan legs. What causes elevated d dimer if no clot?
Why would my d dimer always be slightly elevated? It was 1.87 recently. My ct of chest clear. I have SEVERE anxiety and panic. Im worried I have a clotting problem or they missed a clot that may be in my legs. Why do they scan only chest?
