Introduction

There are few areas of more vigorous debate than the management of severe pulmonary embolism (PE). In recent years the publication of pivotal trials, development of new catheter-based treatment modalities, and particularly the advent of advanced multidisciplinary decision-making teams have created significant opportunities for practicing IRs. In this issue we present thirteen articles spanning everything that the physician involved in the care of patients with PE should know: demographics, diagnosis, risk stratification, medical, surgical, and endovascular management as well as state of the art reviews of the evidence, presented by experts in their respective fields.
