Rapid dynamic bedside assessment of pulmonary perfusion defect by electrical impedance tomography in a patient with acute massive pulmonary embolism

Several animal studies have shown that regional lung perfusion could be effectively estimated by the hypertonic saline contrast electrical impedance tomography method. Here, we reported an application of this method to dynamically assess regional pulmonary perfusion defect in a patient with acute ma...
