Summary

Lung ultrasonography (LUS) is also used in COVID 19 pneumonia for diagnostic and follow-up purposes.It has been demonstrated in different studies that it can be used for pathologies in pleural and lung tissue. LUS was applied by different researchers by dividing the lungs into 12 and 14 regions and the results were shared.

Detailed description

In our study, we aimed to determine the correlation between lung findings of COVID 19 pneumonia and thoracic tomography with the results of LUS applied to different numbers (12 versus 14) of areas.

Conditions

• Lung Ultrasound
• Pneumonia
• Covid19

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	LUS Twelve area	Application of 12 areas (2 posterior, 2 lateral, and 2 anterior)lung ultrasonography protocol using the convex ultrasound probe (2-6 MHz)
DEVICE	LUS Fourteen area	Application of 14 areas (3 posterior, 2 lateral, and 2 anterior) lung ultrasonography protocol using the convex ultrasound probe (2-6 MHz)
