Contrast-enhanced, computed tomography of the chest (angio-CT) is the preferred modality for evaluating central pulmonary embolism (PE). However, acute PE must be diagnosed quickly, and contraindications to contrast agents, hemodynamic instability preventing transport and radiation exposure may limit its use. Because the mediastinal vessels lie within 5 mm of the trachea and central airways, endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) imaging may be a feasible alternative to detecting PE.
