Overview
Pulmonary embolism must be distinguished from other life-threatening causes of chest pain including acute myocardial infarction, aortic dissection, and pericardial tamponade, as well as a large list of non-life-threatening causes of chest discomfort and shortness of breath.
Differential Diagnosis
Common Differential Diagnosis in Outpatients
Among outpatients presenting with dyspnea, <4 % are diagnosed with PE.[1] Common differential diagnoses include:[1]
