Clinical Trial: Comparing Electrical Impedance Tomography to Computed Tomographic Angiography
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Pulmonary Embolism
Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
Official Title: Assessing the Effectiveness of Electrical Impedance Tomography Images to Detect Pulmonary Emboli Compared to Computed Tomographic Angiography
Brief Summary:
The study aim is to determine whether electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is equivalent in the detection of pulmomary emboli compared to Computed Tomographic Angiography (CTA).EIT is a non-invasive, non-ionizing functional imaging technique that can be performed at bedside.Electrical impedance tomography data will be collected on individuals undergoing a CTA scan of the chest at Medical Center of the Rockies (MCR).The primary outcome measure is to assess whether assessment by CTA corresponds with EIT in…
