    Summary

    Pulmonary embolism (PE) was suspected clinically and confirmed by angiography. However, ventilation/perfusion scans showed a pattern typical of lung parenchymal disease, creating a diagnostic contradiction.

    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonary Medicine
    • Diagnostic Imaging
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Pulmonary embolism (PE) presents diagnostic challenges.
    • Ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) scintigraphy is a key imaging modality for PE diagnosis.
    • Interpreting V/Q scan patterns requires careful consideration of differential diagnoses.
