Starekova, J., Chu, S., Bluemke, D., et al. (2023). MRA as the Preferred Test for Pulmonary Embolism During the Iodinated Contrast Media Shortage of 2022: A Single-Center Experience. American Journal of Roentgenology. 221(6):736–746.
This retrospective single-center study describes the University of Wisconsin–Madison Hospital and Clinics’ experience using pulmonary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) as an alternative to computed tomography angiography (CTA) to diagnose pulmonary embolism during the iodinated contrast media shortage in 2022. The study showed that pulmonary MRA was a practical substitute for pulmonary CTA in emergency settings.
