- Abstract
Lung ultrasound is gaining popularity as a quick, easy, and accurate method for the detection of pneumothorax. The typical sonographic features of pneumothorax are the absence of lung sliding, the presence of a lung point, the absence of a lung pulse, and the absence of B-lines. However, we found that in some cases, each of these elements might be misleading.
