Plasma fibrinogen clearance lacks diagnostic utility for post-MI DVT; leaves open need for validated biomarkers in this setting.
Does plasma 125I-labelled fibrinogen clearance help in the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis after myocardial infarction?
Plasma 125I-labelled fibrinogen clearance rates do not appear to significantly vary based on the presence of deep venous thrombosis after myocardial infarction.
Simmons et al. (1972) studied this question.
