That was a fantastic presentation and explanation. I'm not a doctor or medical professional. I'm a 76 years old retiree who obtained a degree in Chemical Engineering but never worked as a chemical engineer. I found this presentation very easy to follow along and many times saw many analogies and applications of fundamental engineering science to the diagnosis of PE in this patient.
