Description
So far, the Note_Table is not publicly available. Thus, we cannot accquire free-text clinical notes for CTPA and echocardiography in MIMIC IV. Then, we find some ICD-9 and ICD-10 code diagnoses of pulmonary embolism (e.g. 41519 and I2699) for the primary diagnosis. Is the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism based on gold standards such as CTPA or other angiography?
