1158: LUNG ULTRASOUND WITH NEURAL NET-GENERATED POINT-OF-CARE IDENTIFICATION OF INJURY TRIAL (LUNG-POINT)Learning Objectives: Pulmonary Embolism (PE) causes 200,000 deaths worldwide annually with mortality as high as 65% for massive PEs. Overall mortality for all PEs in a large intern...
Moreno-Aguilar and Lichtenstein Critical Care Lung ultrasound in the critically ill (LUCI) and the lung point: a sign specific to pneumothorax which cannot be mimicked German Moreno-Aguilar 3 Daniel Lichtenstein 0 1 0 Medical Intensive Care Unit, Hopital Ambroise-Pare, Paris-West University , ...
Pneumothorax and the lung point.A specific sign of pneumothorax. Real-time mode allows detection of the inspiratory increase in volume of the collapsed lung. When reaching the chest wall where the probe is laid, it makes a sudden change in the ultrasound image, from an A’-profile to an A...

Lung ultrasound (LUS) is the latest amongst imaging techniques: it is a radiation-free, inexpensive, point-of-care tool that the clinician can use at the bedside. This review summarises the rapidly growing scientific evidence on LUS in neonatology, divid
Acute pneumothorax, a potential life-threatening injury, can be promptly and accurately diagnosed with the ultrasound by interpretation of artifacts that include lung sliding, B-lines, A-lines, and lung point. Even though computed tomography remains the gold standard method of detecting pneumothorax, ...
Point-of-care lung ultrasound represents an emerging and useful technique in the management of . For many years, thoracic ultrasonography was limited to the study of pleural effusion and thoracic superficial masses because alveolar air and bones of the thoracic cage limit the propagation of the ultr...
