A simplified lung ultrasound approach to detect increased extravascular lung water in critically ill patients [PDF]
Background The quantification of B-lines at lung ultrasonography is a valid tool to estimate the extravascular lung water (EVLW) in patients after major cardiac surgery.

Measurement of extravascular lung water to diagnose severe reperfusion lung injury following pulmonary endarterectomy: a prospective cohort clinical validation study. [PDF]
The measurement of extravascular lung water is a relatively new technology which has not yet been well validated as a clinically useful tool. We studied its utility in patients undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy as they frequently suffer reperfusion ...

Cardiopulmonary ultrasound correlates of pleural effusions in patients with congestive heart failure
Background Pleural effusions are common in patients with congestive heart failure. However, there is a need to assess systematically the correlation between effusion volume, extravascular lung water and echocardiographic parameters.
