CT scans show patients with severe cases of H1N1 are at risk for developing acute pulmonary emboli
A pulmonary embolism occurs when one or more arteries in the lungs become blocked. The condition can be life-threatening. However, if treated aggressively, anti-coagulants (blood thinners) can reduce ...
