AI reading CT scans for lung blood clots
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing whether artificial intelligence can help doctors read CT scans of the lung's blood vessels more accurately and quickly. If you're an adult with a suspected pulmonary embolism who has already had a good-quality CT scan, you may be able to help improve how these scans are interpreted.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 100 years old.
- Your doctor suspects you may have a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lungs).
- You have already had a CTPA scan (a special CT scan of your chest).
- The images from your CT scan are clear enough for the doctors to use.
- You do not have severe heart failure, are not on dialysis, and have not had surgery or a stent in your aorta.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial uses an artificial intelligence (AI) system to read CT scan images of the lungs and predict outcomes after a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lung). It may help doctors identify who is at higher risk, so treatment decisions can be faster and more accurate.
This study uses artificial intelligence to look at imaging scans from people who might have a pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lungs). It aims to help doctors better diagnose and treat this condition.
This trial uses artificial intelligence (AI) to look at chest CT scans for signs of coronary artery disease. It may help find blockages without needing a separate heart-specific CT scan.
This trial tests whether an AI program can better read CT scans to find large blood vessel blockages that cause stroke. If you had a stroke from a blocked large vessel and already had CT scans, the AI may help doctors decide on treatment faster.
This study tests a new type of CT scan (photon-counting CT) to see if it's better at finding small blood clots in the lungs. If you have symptoms like sudden shortness of breath, chest pain, or fainting and doctors suspect a blood clot, this trial may help confirm the diagnosis with clearer images.
This study uses a computer program (deep learning) to analyze your chest CT scan and lung function test results before surgery. The goal is to see if the AI can help doctors better assess your lungs and plan your operation.
