Marc Carrier: Major Scientific Highlight Confirms the Safety of the YEARS Algorithm at ISTH 2026
Marc Carrier, Professor at Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article by Bram Akerboom et al, published in JAMA, adding:
”Major scientific highlight from ISTH 2026 in Paris with simultaneous publication in JAMA.
The RCT demonstrated that a diagnostic strategy using the YEARS diagnostic algorithm in patients with cancer and suspected PE was as safe as using CTPA only, and decreased the need of diagnostic imaging by 22%.”
