A Spanish team used ultrasound scans to document lung abnormalities in three patients who recovered from COVID-19 but still had persistent symptoms months later -- patients commonly known as "longhaulers." @yaletung #radiology https://t.co/XXKTsRgCyJ

Here is a nice article from ⁦@yaletung⁩ cataloguing his #COVID19 journey with LUS. ⁦@ESRA_Society⁩ #FOAMed #POCUS #FOAMcc See the US diary here too https://t.co/pQBZqyodw1 https://t.co/WouzooJwQR

Usefulness of Lung Ultrasound Follow‐up in Patients Who Have Recovered From COVID-19. Easy to use, without side effects or radiation, helps monitor the disease resolution or assess early progression to lung fibrosis. #COVID19 https://t.co/Wy6k4MQmYA

Congratulations!. Strong evidence (RCT) about safety and efficiency of POCUS in renal colic @CasasolaGarcia @GTECOSEMI @mendez_bailon @DanielGarcaGil1

[Yale Tung-Chen @yaletung]

The STONE (Sonography and Testing of a Nephrolithiasis Episode) randomized clinical trial. A Point-of-Care pathway to manage #renalcolic in the ED is effective and safe. Also reduces the amount of time spent in the ED 112 minutes vs 244 (P < .001) #POCUS

4) The annual risk of rupture of aneurysms larger than 5 cm is 25 to 41%.
To measure the diameter, it is important to include the mural thrombus so as not to underestimate the size.

[Blanca Alonso Martínez @BlancaAlonsoMa2]

3) In stable patients with an aneurysm greater than 3 cm in diameter, a CT scan should be performed to confirm it.
More than 90% of abdominal aortic aneurysms are located below the outlet of the renal arteries.

[Blanca Alonso Martínez @BlancaAlonsoMa2]

2) The ultrasound image shows an Aortic Aneurysm of 7 cm with an uncomplicated mural thrombus.

1) A 66-year-old man presented to the emergency department with a quite few weeks history of general discomfort.
A pulsatile mass was evidenced in the abdominal exploration, so an ultrasound study of the aorta was performed. #POCUS @yaletung

Young patient after a blunt chest trauma. Lung #POCUS revealing a nondisplaced rib fracture causing CHIMNEY PHENOMENON by reverberation artifacts occurring at the fracture margins. @yaletung @pocuslapaz

Patient with chest pain and shortness of breath. Lung #POCUS revealing a Lung Point at the mid axillary line (MAL). According to previous study MAL, represents the limit for predicting>than 15% of lung collapse when volume is measured at CT(S 83.3%/Sp 82.4%) @yaletung @pocuslapaz
