CTPP and 3-months clinical outcomes after acute PE 11 175 we were not able to assess whether PDS was associated to CTEPH/CTEPD since these conditions are rather rare complications of acute PE 13,14 which can usually only be diagnosed beyond the initial 3-month treatment period with adequate anticoagulation. In conclusion, in our cohort, CTPP-assessed PDS at initial PE diagnosis was not correlated to persistent symptoms nor with 3-month adverse outcomes in patients diagnosed with acute PE. Large prospective studies with longer follow-up are needed to more definitively determine whether CTPP imaging can be used to predict long-term outcomes after acute PE.
