Preface

Pulmonary thromboembolism has appeared as a frequent complication in COVID-19 infection. As such, this book discusses the diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism in patients with and without COVID-19. Chapters address such topics as clinical symptoms of the disorder, biochemical and radiological findings in patients with pulmonary thromboembolism, and the modern approach to therapy.

The book is a useful resource for the general population of doctors, particularly internists, pulmonologists, and infectious disease specialists.
