متن کاملA prospective comparison of supine chest radiography and bedside ultrasound for the diagnosis of traumatic pneumothorax.
BACKGROUND Supine anteroposterior (AP) chest radiography may not detect the presence of a small or medium pneumothorax (PTX) in trauma patients. OBJECTIVES To compare the sensitivity and specificity of bedside ultrasound (US) in the emergency department (ED) with supine portable AP chest radiography for the detection of PTX in trauma patients, and to determine whether US can grade the size of...
متن کاملDifferentiation of pleural effusions from parenchymal opacities: accuracy of bedside chest radiography.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine, with CT as the reference standard, the ability of radiologists to detect pleural effusions on bedside chest radiographs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Images of 200 hemithoraces in 100 ICU patients undergoing chest radiography and CT within 24 hours were reviewed. Four readers with varying levels of experience reviewed the chest radiographs and pr...
