A member asked:
If i tested borderline positive on blood test for lung blood clots but negative on vq scan is it possible a ct scan or another test could be positive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: VQ scan usually quite accurate at detecting significant pulmonary embolism. CT angiography is used as well and can detect small foci which may not be detected on VQ scan. Sometimes small emboli are not as symptomatic. Should consult your physician.
