“…In a literature review, Pereda et al 13 found reasonable accuracy of LUS even in the hands of less experienced users. Lovrenski 5 used a more logic-based argument, writing that, in the absence of a gold standard for chest radiography, one should prefer chest imaging modality without exposure to ionizing radiation.…”

“…It is often used when radiography is not available—such as in the office setting—or when it is not advisable—such as with pregnant or pediatric patients. 9 The most common indications include assessing patients with acute respiratory distress 5 and clarifying an opaque hemithorax on chest radiograph. 2 LUS is effective in detecting consolidation, characterizing effusions, differentiating between cystic and solid lesions, and following up prenatal malformations.…”

“…Jovan Lovrenski states [1] that "Aside from subpleural consolidations, lung US is very much based on artifacts, such as A-and B-lines," but this aspect is poorly discussed in his article. The author, for example, says that pneumonia can be seen on lung ultrasound (US) as "focal confluent B-lines" without consolidation.…”

“…& Ultrasound scanners are designed to explore organs that are anatomically different from the lung, providing anatomical information not adequate to the combined presence of air and soft tissues. To properly evaluate artifacts, it is crucial to develop processing techniques to obtain objective quantitative information [4]. For example: strong changes in impedance from tissue and air in the alveoli cause multiple scattering in the lung parenchyma.…”

“…Jovan Lovrenski [1] and Paolo Tomà [2] have reviewed the body of literature concerning lung ultrasound in children, and they have arrived at completely different conclusions. Dr. Tomà argues that diagnostics cannot rely on artefactsin this context, A-lines and B-linesbecause these are ultimately dependent on probes and scanners.…”
