Thoracic ultrasound has rapidly gained popularity over the past 10 years, mainly due to its wide availability in emergency and trauma settings, as well as trends toward the point of care ultrasound (pocus) usage in training programs. additionally, ultrasound circumvents many of the issues that arrive with traditional radiography, such as delay of care and radiation exposure. in an unstable. Surprisingly, lung ultrasound had a much higher sensitivity of 92% and a specificity of 99.4%. ct scan of the chest had the highest sensitivity and specificity out of all the modalities. the study concluded that lung ultrasound performed by trained users in the emergency department to detect occult pneumothorax was almost as accurate as ct scan.
