Role of thoracic ultrasound in diagnosis of pulmonary and pleural diseases in critically ill patients

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of thoracic ultrasound and compare it with the bedside chest radiography (CXR) and thoracic computed tomography (CT) for the detection of various pathologic abnormalities in unselected critically ill patients. Introduction: Lung imaging in critically...
