In this week's video we discuss lung sliding which is a normal finding in lung ultrasound that rules out a pneumothorax.

In this video we discuss a common artifact seen in lung ultrasound including its ultrasound characteristics and clinical utility.

Mirror artifact is seen when there is a highly reflective surface encountered by an ultrasound beam such as the surface of the diaphragm. It is a useful artifact that RULES OUT a pleural effusion when present at a lung base.
Pathology

In this video, Dr. Elias Jaffa discusses how to utilize ultrasound to evaluate for a pleural effusion.

In this video, Dr. Elias Jaffa dives into ultrasound use in pneumothorax including exam operating characteristics, lung sliding, and the pathognomonic lung point!

In this video we review the findings of a pleural effusion including the "Spine Sign" and why it occurs.

In this video we discuss two findings that can be seen in a lobar pneumonia including hepatization of the lung and dynamic air bronchograms.

In this video we discuss ultrasound findings seen in a patient with SCAPE. In general these patients are very sick from acute redistribution of fluid into their lungs and the treatment should focus on NIPPV and high dose nitroglycerine.

In this video we discuss pleural findings in both COVID 19 and CHF and how to distinguish between the two distinct entities using ultrasound.

In this video we discuss the sonographic characteristics of a sub-pleural consolidation in the setting of a patient who was ultimately diagnosed with COVID-19.
