Abstract

BACKGROUND: Lung ultrasound can evaluate for pneumothorax but the accuracy of diagnosis depends on experience among physicians. This study aimed to investigate the sensitivity and specificity of intelligent lung ultrasound in comparison with chest x-ray, employing chest computed tomography (CT) as the gold standard for diagnosis of pneumothorax in critical ill patients.
