Perfusion lung scan, whether associated with a ventilation lung scan or not, is frequently used in the diagnosis of pulmonary emboli. The characteristics of perfusion lung scan are reviewed. The added diagnostic value of standard chest X-ray and of ventilation scan is discussed, as well as its use in the intensive care unit.
