Efficacy of Portable Ultrasonography for Early Detection of Pneumothorax Following Lung Biopsy [PDF]

Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases
Background Pneumothorax is a notable complication of lung biopsy, and its early detection is crucial. This study aimed to compare the sensitivities of handheld portable lung ultrasonography and chest radiography in identifying early pneumothorax post ...

Clinical Use of Lung Ultrasound by Emergency and Intensive Care Physicians: A Swiss National Survey

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Lung ultrasound is widely used by emergency and ICU physicians, especially for evaluating dyspnea, shock, and hypoxemia. Despite high clinical relevance, gaps in formal training and protocol standardization persist. Enhancing education and harmonizing practices is essential for optimizing LUS integration into acute care.

Chest ultrasonography versus supine chest radiography for diagnosis of pneumothorax in trauma patients in the emergency department.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2018
BACKGROUND Chest X-ray (CXR) is a longstanding method for the diagnosis of pneumothorax but chest ultrasonography (CUS) may be a safer, more rapid, and more accurate modality in trauma patients at the bedside that does not expose the patient to ionizing ...

International Expert Consensus and Recommendations for Neonatal Pneumothorax Ultrasound Diagnosis and Ultrasound-guided Thoracentesis Procedure.

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2020
Pneumothorax (PTX) represents accumulation of the air in the pleural space. A large or tension pneumothorax can collapse the lung and cause hemodynamic compromise, a life-threatening disorder. Traditionally, neonatal pneumothorax diagnosis has been based

Thoracic Ultrasound–Related Management Change: Predictors and the Role of Operator Certification (Secondary Analysis of UltraMAN)

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Thoracic ultrasound frequently altered ICU management decisions. Changes were more likely in patients with cardiovascular disease or hypovolemia and occurred independently of operator certification. These findings support the routine use of TUS in critically ill patients, even when performed by less‐experienced but supervised operators.

Lung ultrasound: a valid help in the differential diagnosis between pneumothorax and pulmonary blebs

Emergency Care Journal, 2013
Spontaneous pneumothorax is a relatively common disease but its radiological diagnosis can be difficult because of the insufficient sensitivity of chest X-rays. This is even more so when bullous emphysema and acute pneumothorax co-exist.

Spontaneous Lung Herniation Leading to Extensive Subcutaneous Emphysema, Pneumothorax, Pneumomediastinum, and Pneumopericardium. [PDF]

, 2018
Spontaneous lung herniation is a rare phenomenon in which the lung parenchyma along with the pleural membranes protrudes outside their usual boundaries and can lead to a wide variety of complications.

Deep learning detection and quantification of pneumothorax in heterogeneous routine chest computed tomography

European Radiology Experimental, 2020
Background Automatically detecting and quantifying pneumothorax on chest computed tomography (CT) may impact clinical decision-making. Machine learning methods published so far struggle with the heterogeneity of technical parameters and the presence of ...
